Description

Painting by Katharine Kuharic, Pound of Flesh (oil on linen, 6' x 4', 2011). The image illustrates a key later body of work in Katharine Kuharic's painting in the 2010s, when she turned to more personal imagery involving appearance, ambition, comfort, love, middle age and death. These works sometimes combined themes of consumer excess with symbols and motifs representing weight loss and gain, nourishment, fertility, and self- reproach, as in this painting, which juxtaposes motifs of eggs, hollyhocks, songbirds and Weight Watchers frozen dinner packages, text (the title) repeated and configured into a sunrise or sunset, and graphic elements charting Kuharic's annual weight. This work was publicly exhibited in prominent exhibitions, discussed in major art journals and daily press publications.

Purpose of use

The image serves an informational and educational purpose as the primary means of illustrating a key later body of work in Katharine Kuharic's career in the 2010s: her paintings that turned to more personal (rather than sociopolitical) concerns involving appearance, ambition, comfort, love, middle age and death. These works sometimes combined earlier themes of consumer excess with symbols and motifs representing weight loss and gain, nourishment, fertility, and self- reproach, as well as allegories employing psychedelic skeletons, bulldogs, cats, birds and flora. Because the article is about an artist and her work, the omission of the image would significantly limit a reader's understanding and ability to understand this early stage and body of work, which brought Kuharic initial recognition through exhibitions and coverage by major critics and publications. Kuharic's work of this type and this series is discussed in the article and by critics cited in the article.

Replaceable?
