Shadowy Nuance and Colourful Movement (FIONA GRADY)

from ART FICTIONS · host Jillian Knipe

Guest artist FIONA GRADY joins me to chat about her work via Jun'ichirō Tanazaki's 1933 essay 'In Praise of Shadows'. The text describes eastern aesthetics being driven by the west, resulting in the loss of Japanese tradition and the loss of the shadow.  Fiona Grady and I discuss her own praise of shadows, working with semi translucent colours on glass, wall murals and watercolours which celebrate subtlety, reflection and the elusiveness of the object of which, I'm quite certain, Tanazaki would approve.    FIONA GRADY fionagrady.co.uk instagram fiona_grady 'Close to Home: The Everyday Sublime' JGM Gallery til 25 Sep 2021 'Kaleidoscope Prisms' Canary Wharf til end October 2021 'The Factory Project' October 2021 upcoming at The Foundry Gallery 2022   ARTISTS & CURATORS Alfred Hitchcock Anna Lytridou Anne Veronica Janssens Beatriz Milhazes Ben McDonnell Bridget Riley Charley Peters Daniel Buren David Batchelor Eric Thorpe Félix González-Torres Fumio Asakura Gordon Matta-Clark Hannah Luxton James Turrell Jane Hayes Greenwood Julie F Hill Linda Hemmersbach  Nick Stavri Poppy Whatmore Sol leWitt Tim Ralston Vivienne Maier Yukako Shibata   BOOKS Haruki Murakami 'Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World' 1985 Leonard Koren 'Wabi-Sabi for Artists, Designers, Poets & Philosophers' 1984 Maggie Nelson 'The Argonauts' 2015   GALLERIES & ART ORGANISATIONS Artist's Support Pledge Asakura Museum of Sculpture Bauhaus Derix Glasstudios, Germany JGM Gallery, London Kevin Gauld Architecture Leeds Arts University Nightingale Arts 'Passengers' Residency, The Brunswick Centre Projekt Recreational Grounds Sid Motion Gallery The Art Station, Suffolk The Foundry Gallery White Conduit Projects, London
