Shizuko Kimura: The Poetics of Form
January 28 – March 17, 2012
Graham Gallery & Window on Race
Working directly from live models, Japanese artist Shizuko Kimura creates intricately rendered figure drawings that fuse Asian aesthetics with Western concepts of figurative art and abstraction. In allegiance to the performative elements of drawing, her intimate works demonstrate the stitched mark’s ability to record subtle gesture and capture the essential vitality of the human body through a reductive use of line and texture.
