KIM VAN SOMEREN | THE SLANT OF LINE


KIM VAN SOMEREN
THE SLANT OF LINE

J. Rinehart Gallery announces The Slant of Line, an exhibition of new hand printed and collaged works on paper by artist and educator, Kim Van Someren. On view August 1 – September 12, 2020. Virtual opening reception Saturday August 1, 2020 from 5-6pm at www.jrinehartgallery.com.

The Slant of Line is a collection of works on paper, drawn from structures found in farming and forests, worship and spirituality, air and warcraft. Referencing the structure and form of building, however these ideas become secondary to the investigations of balance, believability and kinetic potential of that which is inanimate.

Van Someren is interested in the metaphorical gender of structure, and how this can be altered through line, mass, and translucency. The works in this series offer interpretations of how mass and weight can be dictated with the direction, density and content of line.

In conjunction with the exhibition, a digital catalog will be published with an essay written by independent scholar, writer and art advocate, Sharon Arnold.
