CATALOGUE RAISONNÉ 1987-91
Carl Mehrbach moves to Lyme, New Hampshire. This is his beginning of Mastery. Everything Mehrbach makes going forward, from his moment of arrival in Lyme, is charged with energy, enthusiasm, and a quest for perfection. Being a student will never leave Mehrbach; he constantly questions, contemplates, adjusts, transitions; Mehrbach is fond of saying his progress in Art-Making "Takes two steps forward for every one step backward."
