Holly Lane - Not Enough Time to Love the World - New Museum Los Gatos

Holly Lane—Not Enough Time to Love the World showcases a range of Lane’s work garnered from the previous ten-plus years of a multi-decade career. As an art undergraduate, she began considering the relationship of frame to picture. She has since reimagined it into a new art form of her own invention, in which each component—painting and frame—is fundamental to the work as a whole. In a striking symbiosis, she unites each of her paintings with an intricately ornamented wood frame that she designs and carves for it. Her work expresses a profound amalgamation of heartfelt respect for the natural world, particularly the animal kingdom, and architectural and painterly expertise, plus musings on the autonomy of women, world mythology, and philosophy.
