About the Item

A fair-haired figure with a ponytail wearing green waders and a baseball cap stands knee-deep in inviting, light blue green water while holding a fishing pole, the curving fishing line extended upward. Green foliage with hints of golden yellow is lush and thick along the water's edge in the background, while the figure is reflected in green ripples on the water's surface in this peaceful landscape painting in oil on linen by KK Kozik. Signed, dated, and titled on verso. KK Kozik is a landscape painter, a figurative painter, and an interiors/still life painter. Many of these paintings veer towards painterly abstraction. Her exploration and mastery of these diverse genres is evidence of her fluid and continuous process of evolution. Kozik is always searching, pushing, and discovering. Her work is dedicated to finding the dynamic balance between mastery of technique and cognizance of art history while creating and solving new pictorial challenges. Her paintings are compositionally and emotionally complex and deeply rewarding. Her work has been featured in Art in America, The New York Times, Timeout New York and London, Artnews, Harper’s Magazine, The Village Voice, The New Yorker, and Artforum, to name a few. Among her professional honors are fellowships from the state of Connecticut and at the Weir Farm Trust, as well as from Syracuse University and the Marie Walsh Sharpe Art Foundation. She has created permanent public commissions for Fitchburg State University in conjunction with the Fitchburg Art Museum and for the New York City Metropolitan Transit Authority Arts for Transit program at the Rockaway Park/Beach 116th St Subway Station. Her work has been shown extensively in the US and in Europe, including at the New Britain Museum of American Art, New Britain, CT, where she was awarded first out of 1000 artists in their 2018 Nor’easter survey show. Her work is in the collections of Smithsonian Museum, William Benton Museum, Florida State Museum of Fine Arts, The Rowman and Littlefield Publishing Group, Copelouzos Family Art Museum, Athens, Greece, General Electric Corporation, Great Valley Corporate Center, Harvard Business School, and the Library of Congress. Kozik earned degrees from The University of Virginia and Syracuse University. She is the director of ICEHOUSE Project Space in Sharon, CT where she lives and works.
