About the Item

Multidisciplinary visual artist Kim Frohsin created the series, 'Dancers and Athletes', from a variety of media—acrylic paint, glazes, ink, collage, pencils, and dry pigment—built upon photographs and photographic imagery. There is an aura that pervades these works uniquely depicting dancers and athletes that require the viewer to look closely, to take in the complex surface qualities and ambiguous abstractions, while simultaneously recognizing the underlying “real-life” photographic imagery captured by the artist. Mysterious, clandestine, poetic, and nostalgic: There are endless surprises to be found in the small works from this series. Frohsin began exhibiting in the San Francisco Bay Area in the early 1990s, and in 1993 was included with Nathan Olivera, Manuel Neri and Stephen De Staebler in an exhibit of "Four Figures from the Bay." With Wayne Thiebaud as the juror, she won the California Society of Printmakers' Award in 1996, and the following year exhibited at the de Young Museum in San Francisco in "Bay Area Art: The Morgan Flagg Collection." Frohsin is at home with painting, drawing, monoprintIng, and mixed media. The mixed media painting in black and smoky silver features the legs of a woman and her heels or dancers shoes. It is framed in a museum quality light hardwood frame using all archival materials. Outer dimensions:9 1/2 x 24 1/2 inches. The artwork is 8 1/2 x 23 1/2 inches. Artist signed, titled, dated and viewable Verso.
