Artist Talk: Patrick Young “The Artist’s Eye”

The Kimbell’s curator for Asian and non-Western art, Jennifer Casler Price, will moderate this free session.

Since 2000, Young has used light, gauzy scrim as the surface for his delicately colored, geometric paintings. For his discussion, Young created a piece of art in response to the architecture and the light of the Louis Kahn building by utilizing one of the Museum’s temporary gallery walls as the framework for his scrim canvas.

Young’s work can be found in the American Airlines collection as well as various private collections. In addition to painting, Young is a contract preparator for several museums in Dallas and Fort Worth, including the Kimbell Art Museum.

“The Artist’s Eye” is an ongoing program moderated by Kimbell staff. It brings Texas artists to the Museum to discuss works in the permanent collection, share the special insights of the practicing professional, and relate older art to contemporary artistic concerns, including their own.
