...and
oh my!! If I haven't got anything to say after three days in New York
gorging, guzzling and stuffing myself with art works I never will!
What a feast!
Through
the haze of jet lag here is the first of my favourites at the
Guggenheim.
bTucked
away Presence 2006-2007, coloured pencil and acrylic on canvas
by Shirazeh Houshiary caught me by surprise. I had been introduced to
her work some months ago by an intuitive friend who could see
connections to my own work The drawing was so mesmerising that I
returned to sit in front of it four times. The wall text described
Houshiary's work as 'contemplative' and 'sublime' with its fine
pencil marks in blue caught and floating on a matt black ground. I
had a looked at her work closely on her website
http://www.shirazehhoushiary.com/
but as always the digital images failed miserably to show the depth
and beauty of the real thing! Still worth a look though.
