Jan Wurm - Paintings & Drawings

Stop by the Library to view figurative paintings and drawings by Jan Wurm.  Working between the Bay Area & Los Angeles, Wurm is a prolific artist who regularly exhibits both nationally and internationally, and who also teaches at UC Berkeley.  Her large-scale paintings incorporate a gestural line with vibrantly colored impasto surfaces, while the psychological complexities and situations of the "actors" of each canvas beckon the viewer to remain.  Many of Wurm’s sketchbooks are also on display, revealing the artist's process and visual documentation of her immediate surroundings in a variety of locations.  Artwork is exhibited on the 2nd & 3rd floors of the Library.
