A full color exhibition catalog of Marilyn Henrion's latest series of artworks entitled Complexity, introduced at Noho Gallery in New York City in April, 2012. The catalog includes an insightful essay by art critic, Ed McCormack. These new mixed media works are inspired by the natural world. The works find resonance in the scientific theory of Complexity, as well as in poetry. With this 20th solo exhibition, Marilyn Henrion marks her 80th birthday. Continuing her commitment to applying contemporary aesthetic sensibilities to traditional textile techniques and combining them with modern technologies, the artist celebrates that irregular and intimate quality of things made of the human hand. In this series, she prints her digitally manipulated photographs on fabric, adding depth and animation to the surfaces by hand quilting with silk thread. Constructed with the finest materials and museum-quality craftsmanship, the medium is transformed into a vehicle for sophisticated visual expressions with strong graphic impact.
