Re: Washington Printmakers Gallery welcomes artist Kathleen Kuster King.
Washington Printmakers Gallery is pleased to welcome printmaker Kathleen Kuster King to the gallery. King’s paintings, drawings and prints have been exhibited throughout the US as well as Canada, Australia and Europe. Her recent exhibitions include New Prints Spring 2007 (International Print Center New York, curated by James Sienna), 19th Los Angeles National Printmaking Exhibition (Riverside Museum CA), La Biennale internationale d’estampe contemporaine de Trois-Rivieres (Quebec), Prints USA (Springfield Art Museum), Transformation of the Object (Albrecht Kemper Museum of Art), Reinterpreting the Ordinary (Mulvane Museum of Art), the Southern Graphics Council (invited portfolios shown at several venues in the USA), and Dennis Morgan Gallery (Kansas City, MO). She is currently an Associate Professor of Art at Kansas State University where she teaches printmaking, painting and drawing. Her etchings, monotypes and lithographs, and unique, hand-colored impressions are included in numerous public and private collections.
King’s current prints involve interpretations of imagined distances that combine loosely-drawn architectural forms, or fragments of forms excerpted from her drawings. “Circumstantial light and marks suggesting buoyancy, weight and atmosphere are departures for moving within the image and are ways to combine the temporal and momentary with feelings of gravity and fixedness.” Kathleen Kuster King
