Tobey C. Moss Gallery is proud to present its latest show, THE SUBJECT IS WOMAN and YNEZ JOHNSTON: an INTIMATE VIEW, to run from January 19 to March 29, 2013.
ON VIEW
The Subject is Woman is an eclectic collection of works that depict " woman" as the source of mystery, creativity, and desire that is the foundation of artists' work in print from John Altoon to Alfred Stieglitz, Albrecht Durer to Leonora Carrington, Betye Saar to Gerald Brockhurst, Kathe Kollwitz to Jose Luis Cuevas, George Morland to Henrietta Shore. The Subject is Woman combines works in a variety of media: prints, drawings, and paintings, all portraying inscrutable woman in her many guises.
YNEZ JOHNSTON: AN INTIMATE VIEW is an outstanding collection of work showcasing Ynez Johnson's imagery. Tobey Moss has been entranced by Ynez Johnston's work for many years. The magical intimate narratives, the personal variants within an edition, the idiosyncratic techniques that have profoundly stimulated our imagination and appreciation. On view in this show is a collection of Johnston's most stunning work that includes her images of travel combined with a collage of visual experience. Also on view is her dramatic incised painting as well as a number of prints displaying a modern sensibility that blends modernism and ancient art form that is unique to this extraordinary artist.
