Galerie Nathalie Obadia publishes the first catalogue on Rosson Crow, a young american artist whose work is already in a number of French and American public and private collections.

The catalogue gathers a series of twenty works conceived between 2005 and 2006 – ten of which are reproduced on full pages and an introduction by New York art critic and curator Kathy Grayson, in French and English.

Born in 1982 in Dallas, Texas, Rosson Crow currently finishes her art studies at the prestigious Yale University.

She started showing her work in New York in 2004 and in 2005 got a solo exhibition at galerie Nathalie Obadia in Paris. In 2007, the artist is planning to come to live and work in Paris.

Rosson Crow shows a great aesthetic maturity and a very personal dreamlike world. Her large carvases are abstract representations of baroque environments (interior decors or outside landscapes).

Objects, furniture and people take distended shapes and seem to belong to a very strong let alone sometimes disturbing mental sphere, somehow echoing David Lynch’s movies.

Sharp colors, sometimes almost fluorescent, convey a crude and very contemporary tonality in the work. The technique used by the artist, a mixture of oil, paint and enamel, gives materiality, volume and intensity to the paintings. Rosson Crow’s work constantly oscillates between delight and delirium.

This catalogue is distributed by our partner PARIS MUSÉES in 300 bookstores in France, including 50 specialized with an Art section. The catalogue will be listed in over forty (40) professional databases, including Fnac, Amazon and Dilicom as well as in online bookstores.

The catalogue will also be distributed in Europe, North America, Canada and Eastern Europe
