About the Item

Experimental photographic work by Kim Frohsin, who is often associated with the Bay Area Figurative movement, 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 a multidisciplinary visual artist, who is at home with painting, drawing, monoprintIng, and mixed media. Her subjects include the female figure as well as mundane ''objects" and series — including ‘Cautionary Tales’ and ‘Portraits of Numbers’— that attract her attention, and which are most often autobiographical in nature. This mixed media work is created from deconstructed pinhole photographs of the artist. She worked the photos over with multiple media sources, including acrylic, ink, dry pigment, pencils and then reconfigured the small pieces into an abstracted assemblage. The work is beautifully geometric, visually harmonious and autobiographic. It is professionally framed in a museum quality white wood using all archival materials. Artwork is 20 x 27 inches. The outer frame dimension is: 28 5/8 x 35 3/4 inches.
