After 9/11: Pen and Ink Drawings | Lynne Rutzky
January 18 – February 23, 2008

Lawndale Art Center-Project Space

As a visual artist interested in time-based process art, Lynne Rutzky uses a repetitive mark making method to achieve a meditative state and to explore images that emerge from that process. Using this method the artist produced a body of drawings in response to continuous media coverage and the events on and following 9/11 and the early stages of the war in Afghanistan. The drawings reference a sense of national loss of innocence and child-like fears conjured up by the attack and the subsequent war. The artist will display some of the nearly 100 pen and ink drawings created on this theme and ranging from the grotesque to the whimsical , which emerged during this meditative process.
