Her most recent series, <i>Threshold</i>, comprises six paintings (three of which are on view in <i>2010</i>) that depict the space between two rooms. In one-to-one scale, the paintings show the surfaces of two floors meeting one another, recreating the exact size of the actual thresholds. In <i>Threshold, SouthWest-Two [spectrum: green]</i>, linoleum tile meets wood and stone, framed on either side by the silhouette of doorjambs and an open door. Fish&#8217;s exploration of transitional space is undertaken with a deliberate attention to color. The carefully applied bracketed areas of paint highlight the central image of the flooring.</p></div> Whitney Museum of American Art Wed, 07 Sep 2011 18:03:32 -0400 http://whitney.org/Exhibitions/2010Biennial/JuliaFish http://whitney.org/Exhibitions/2010Biennial/JuliaFish <p><font color="#7f7f7f">Exhibitions/2010Biennial/JuliaFish/Wiki</font></p> <p><a href="http://whitney.org/Exhibitions/2010Biennial/JuliaFish/Wiki"><img border="0" src="/image_columns/0018/8470/jfish_3.23.2010_threshold_north_spectrum_blue-forwweb_400.jpg" /></a></p> Whitney Museum of American Art Fri, 23 Apr 2010 16:54:25 -0400 http://whitney.org/Exhibitions/2010Biennial/JuliaFish/Wiki http://whitney.org/Exhibitions/2010Biennial/JuliaFish/Wiki
