Form/Space Atelier Program for May 2008
Form/Space Atelier Program for May 2008
Show Title: Mentor: The Unknown Work of Nancy Lee
Show Duration: May 9-June 8
Opening Reception: May 9, 6-10PM
Seattle artist and much-loved middle-school art teacher Nancy Lee died in 1990, leaving behind a fascinating but virtually unknown body of work. Following the death of her widower, Dr. Robert C. Lee, in 2006, a large number of pieces by the artist were discovered while the Lees’ home of many years was being cleared of their belongings. Mentor: The Unknown Work of Nancy Lee represents a journey by a living artist, Paul D. Natkin, into the work of a deceased artist, Lee, who was his long-time family friend and early mentor. The several works
by Lee presented in this show exemplify her passion for a great variety of materials—including canvas, watercolor paper, paper
towels, paper bags, scrap metal, gauze, cellophane, plywood, watercolor, oil paint, house paint, sticks, clay and mud—and her very intuitive, stream-of-consciousness approach to image-making. The pieces by Lee are shown side by side with copies of biographical documentation and written ruminations on her work by Natkin.
