A Girl’s Gotta Do What A Girl’s Gotta Do
RICHMOND ART GALLERY
“For over two decades the work of Vancouver artist Lyse Lemieux has balanced between representation and abstraction while still maintaining a relationship to the human figure. These large new works created specifically for A GIRL’S GOTTA DO WHAT A GIRL’S GOTTA DO optimize the expansive exhibition space and are largely derived from the intimate scale drawings found in Lemieux’s numerous sketchbooks. Over the last 15 years Lemieux has drawn, painted and collaged in dozens of smaller format sketchbooks and a selection of these will be displayed illuminating the intuitive, conceptual development of her ideas and impulses. In addition to the large wall drawings a series of felt and ink drawings will be shown as well as a new sculptural work.” - Nan Capogna, Curator, Richmond Art Gallery
