Köp båda 2 för 1187 kr"in the art of kimberly brooks, reality dances, tantalizingly, just out of reach. the interiors and landscapes of her paintings are lush, seductive, but impossible to occupy; while stocked with familiar aesthetic cues, they feel hallucinatory, displaced not only from the here and now but even from the historical circumstances they mimic." - michael wilson
"...Color and the poetry of a brushstroke command the conversation, the image becomes both a vestigial memory of a place and an armature for Brooks to discover an expression contained in the pure emotional power of painting.”
gary brewer, Art & Cake
"imagining the distant past as described in history books and museums is clearly a key inspiration for brooks’ hazily painted portrayals of venerable settings. blank paintings within paintings appear to have mysteriously vanished from ornate frames. adorning faintly painted museum walls, gilt-framed indistinct sub-pictures sport nondescript subjects."
annabel osberg, Artillery Magazine
