Guided by what she calls her “inner choreography,” Linda Karshan makes spare, monochromatic, abstract prints and drawings that serve as direct reflections of the process of their making. Although she began her career producing expressive compositions, in 1994 she developed a performancebased method for making work, in which every mark is associated with her rhythmic and regulated breathing, her counter-clockwise turning of the paper, the motion of her entire body, and the musical way in which she counts off increments of time. The Courtauld Gallery holds a number of Linda’s works and she has graciously offered to open up her studio to Samuel Courtauld Society Director’s Circle and Patrons’ Circle members.
