TOUGH GUYS and COOL GIRLS
True Selves or Codes of Conduct?
Paintings, Prints and Drawings by Halcy Bohen
December 5, 2011 to January 5, 2012
 
Artist’s Reception Sunday, December 4th, 4-6 pm 
@
Landow Gallery at the Landon School
6101 Wilson Lane
Bethesda, Maryland 20817

“This provocative exhibit propels you inward. As a psychologist and artist, Bohen is interested in the interior and relational lives of her subjects. 

Her compelling men and women appear alone or with others, in a myriad of styles and circumstances.  Every expression and pose is reflective, or reactive. 

The pictures explore whether  "toughness and cool" cover  uncertainty and vulnerability;   how expression, posture, and dress  give mixed signals.   

The works are large and small, portraits and figures, real and imagined-- in oil, acrylic, ink, charcoal, watercolor and mono-print.
