About the Artist:
Tracy Nakayama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii. She earned a BFA from the California College of Arts and Crafts in 1996 while studying with Bay Area printmakers Jack Ford, Ken Rignall, and Beat poet Michael McClure. She relocated to New York City shortly after where she received an MFA from the School of Visual Arts in 1998. Her early works, sepia-toned ink drawings based on imagery derived from 1970s Playgirl magazines and lifestyle advertising, in her words, "captured the diminishing glow of an era as the last bit of its stash went up in smoke. Their superficial prettiness suggest a resentment toward the psychological baggage of a self-satisfied generation that got to have its cake and eat it too, while also expressing a sincere longing for the emotional, sexual, and material satisfaction being advertised" – themes that she continues to explore in her work. Using imagery derived from vintage pornographic sources, Nakayama’s work seeks to subvert the male gaze by drawing focus to the artist’s hand. In recent years her work has come to focus on portraiture and figures in landscape that comment on the history of painting. She has exhibited extensively in galleries and museums in the US, Europe, Japan, and Scandinavia. Her work is also part of the Judith Rothschild Contemporary Drawing Collection in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art, New York.

John Baldessari
Nose/ Silhouette:Green, 2012
1 color lithograph, 1 color screenprint
Edition of 50
18 x 14 inches
Courtesy Gemini G.E.L., Los Angeles, CA
Value: $2,500
Starting Bid: $1,700
In the series of colorful and dynamic prints, Nose/Silhouette (2010), John Baldessari continues his
investigation of isolated body parts, much as he did in his previous Gemini G.E.L. series Noses & Ears,
Etc. of 2006, and Foot and Stocking (With Big Toe Exposed) of 2010. In Foot and Stocking, the artist
focused on the exposed big toe of his studio assistants' right feet. Now the artist shifts his attention
back up to the face, particularly on the nose, in order to create the Nose/Silhouette series. For each
print, Baldessari appropriates a color or black-and-white photograph as source material for the nose,
which is then printed lithographically over a silk-screened, color-block silhouette of a face. An edition
size of 50, this engaging, small scale print (18 x 14 inches each) is terrifically representative of the type
of imagery that John Baldessari has come to be known for throughout his career.

Part of an installation by Vanessa Vobis at (106) Gallery. One of my favorites of the evening. Many of these little water-filled baggies were suspended creating the illusion of floating diamonds.
