Kim Moodie : Recent WorkTools Patten, James. Kim Moodie : Recent Work. London, Ont.: London Regional Art and Historical Museums, 1999.
Abstract (English)Catalogue to accompany an exhibition of Moodie’s recent paintings, prints and drawings (1996-1999). Curator J. Patten exposes “the ambivalent nature and rhizomatous structure” of the artist’s production, discussing the themes of knowledge and written language, colonialism, conquest domination, carnival, human folly, the grotesque, the spritual/material and low /high culture. The author also examines Moodie’s vision, his personal universe and working methods, while describing the skin-like surfaces accentuated through the repetition of imagery and inclusion of objects such as rose petals. List of works. Biographical notes. 4 bibl. ref.
