⏰ Last week! Kunié Sugiura: Photopainting closes Sept 14.
Don’t miss these surprising details and boundary-pushing innovations:
1️⃣ A cat cameo 🐾 — Look closely at "Promised Land" and you’ll see a paw print left by her cat on the canvas.
2️⃣ Giant scale — In works like "Yellow Mum," she hand-coated giant canvases (up to 6x8 feet!) with photo emulsion to print at a scale impossible with commercial photo paper at the time.
3️⃣ Ahead of the curve — She started making color photographs as art in the 1960s, at a time when pretty much nobody else was 🌈
Catch these details before the exhibition closes Sept 14!
