Karen LeQocq
Karen LeCocq is a painter and an assemblage sculptor who has shown nationally and internationally in galleries as well as major museums, among them: The Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, NY, The Armand Hammer Museum, Los Angeles, CA, and has two works in the permanent collection of the The Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, CA.
Her work has gained international recognition through its use in the Absolut Vodka Signature Artist campaign and has been pictured in numerous publications, among them: Art In America, Art News, Artforum, Art and Antiques, Manhatten Arts, and Time Magazine and has been reproduced in the books The Power of Feminist Art, Sexual Politics, The Absolut Book, California Artists, Through the Flower and By Our Own Hands.
Lately, her work has focused on painting with the subject of water lilies or lotus flowers. The symbolism of the flower emerging from the swampy depths to blossom in the sunlight as a metaphor for personal enlightenment is of great interest and expression.
