Portraits of the Iconic and the Mundane

Kim Frohsin Turns the Recognizable Into Something More at Fort Mason

38 Fort Mason


Saturday, January 14th, 2012
1:00PM - 3:00PM

Portraits of the Iconic and the Mundane comprises Kim Frohsin's most recent paintings, exploring instantly recognizable numbers, symbols, and commercial packaging for branded products. Typically numbers express quantity, but in these paintings they revert to forms abounding with layers of color, multiple linear elements, and purposeful splatters. The work expands on the artist's thesis that the detritus of everyday life can be a source for telling portraiture. -Get Details on Claire Pasquier and Winni Wintermeyer for the Opening Make sure to catch the opening reception for this exhibition at Fort Mason on January 14 from 1PM - 3PM!
