About the Item

Important work from Kim Frohsin's Cautionary Tales series of 2015, that considers the price of progress in our rapidly changing world. Here in this compelling diptych "Mesh no. 1' we see a vanishing urban landscape through orange construction mesh. There are dots if blue representing fragments of sky and embedded messages on caution. Created in Frohsin's wholly unique method of layered painting with mainly acrylic and ink, gouache, pencils and glazes. Framed in museum quality pale hardwood floater framed. Signed, titled and dates Verso. The painting can hang on a wall, or sit of a table or shelf. Compelling and provocative small works that are also the smallest of Frohsin's 'Mesh' works from the CT series that was featured at Art Silicon Valley's International Art Fair. The painting is 14 x 14 inches and framed in a hard wood floater frame and is 15 x 15 inches. 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.
