L'artiste saphique et sa muse, 2024, an oil on linen painting by Professor of Art Katharine Kuharic, is on display in Art Basel Paris through Oct. 26. Kuharic is represented by P·P·O·W, a contemporary art gallery in New York City that describes her work as “a genre of distinctly queer image-making that is both pastoral and pop.”
With L'artiste saphique et sa muse, 2024, Kuharic honors 17th century French artist Rosa Bonheur, according to a P·P·O·W press release. “Forgoing realism of scale, Kuharic situates Bonheur in an imaginary space where the natural world bends to her will, underscoring the force of the painter’s spirit,” the press release says.
Art Basel Paris features artists represented by more than 200 galleries and takes place in the heart of Paris at the Grand Palais.
