KIM GORDON “PERFORMING/GUZZLING”
2010-02-15A founding member of Sonic Youth, Kim Gordon moved from Los Angeles to New York in the 1970s. Her watercolors are inspired by on-stage performance, the faces of the crowd basis for dreamlike blurs of color. Gordan works with more than just watercolor, she combines newsprint, word, and photograph all working as canvas for quick slashes of color. The shapes are at once lightning fast portrait and abstract shape.
Limited to an initial run of 3,000, complete with a signed print by Gordon. Performing/Guzzling is an artist monograph with hands-on feel. Gordon handled the design and layout, offering a series of her watercolors, mixed media collages, and personal lyrics. Published Nieves and Rizzoli.
