Kim Fisher "New Works"
John Connelly Presents
This event has ended.
Seven new paintings by Kim Fisher will be on view in New York City at John Connelly Presents for a special exhibition of works originally commissioned by the Santa Barbara Contemporary Arts Forum. To create this new body of work, the artist, working with the curators of invertebrate zoology and malacology at the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History, studied and researched the museum's renowned collection of exotic shells. Using her observations on the natural forms, textures, patterns, shapes and colors of shells, Fisher has created a beautiful and fascinating new series of paintings which reflect upon and dialogue with the artist's earlier exploration of gemology, fashion, abstraction and the lunar cycles.
Kim Fisher received her MFA from Otis College of Art and Design in 1998, and her BA from the University of California in 1996, both in Los Angeles. She has had solo exhibitions at China Art Objects, Los Angeles; John Connelly Presents, New York; Shane Campbell, Chicago, and the Modern Institute, Glasgow. Fisher exhibits internationally and participated in the 2004 Whitney Biennial at The Whitney Museum of American Art and the 2004 California Biennial at the Orange County Museum of Art in Newport Beach, California.
