ABOUT THE EXHIBITION: Featured the work of Eric Finzi, Annette Rawlings, Keith Webster, and Junqing Wu. Each of these four artists has a uniquely different style and explore the human figure in many different techniques. Webster is a practitioner of rigorous simplification; Rawlings references Modigliani; Wu sees his work as a kind of response to Andy Warhol; Finzi, the most apparently Expressionist of the four, references 19th century medical photographs in his work. Lucie-Smith states, "The human body fascinates us not least because it houses the human spirit. It is the carapace that makes us what we are. In celebrating the body, these four artists are also celebrating some of the myriad possibilities of being human." . First Edition. Soft Cover. Very Good/No Jacket. 9.25" x 11". Exhibition Catalog.
