About the Item

'Cones: Married Couple' from Kim Frohsin's important and historic Cautionary Tales series series of 2015. 'Married Couple' featuring a pair of construction cones standing together side by side, is one of about 15 "portraits" of construction cones by Frohsin from her CT series. A contemporary painting created from mixed media: mainly acrylic with gouache, dry pigment, ink and pencils on archival board. The artwork is 20 x 20 inches and will be professionally framed in a museum quality whitewashed maple wood floater frame to 11 1/4 x 21 1/4 inches at the time of sale. Framing is complimentary and takes 2 weeks to complete. Artist's signature, title and date are viewable from the back of the work. Signed in pencil on the front. Condition is excellent Kim Frohsin's Cautionary Tales marks a grand departure for this third-generation Bay Area figurative artist, who is best known for her exquisite draftsmanship, innate color sense, and female figuration. With Cautionary Tales, Frohsin pushes her mixed media and collage talent into a new realm. Cautionary Tales reflects on how technology is disrupting our world with a speed at which we cannot comprehend the repercussions. It is created in reaction to the wholesale gentrification and neighborhood dislocations the artist has experienced in her own beloved San Francisco, where changes in the name of societal advancement are occurring at a dizzying pace. The messages are universal, however, and not limited to San Francisco. Although the works make a bold statement, they are highly personal and directed with a quiet, guiding voice.
