Adora Porcelain initiates a series of limited edition artists' plates with Times of Day; featuring paintings by Karen Kilimnik, Robert Greene, and Nicole Eisenman. Three portraits are brought together to convey different aspects of time's passage through a day. Dawn by Karen Kilimnik reproduces an image of the Roman Goddess of Spring Flora; Day by Robert Greene shows a woman relaxing on a boat and Dusk by Nicole Eisenman features a woman contemplating the transition from day to night.
The pictures retain their individual identities while evoking new poetic possibilities suggested by the theme, Times of Day. The intention is to describe a conventional narrative structure with images that open the story to many different ideas. As a group the plates are like paintings in an exhibition, each plate, however, is an independent work which can be purchased separately.
Philadelphia resident Karen Kilimnik has exhibited in museums and galleries across North America and Europe and was recently honored with a solo exhibition at the Kunsthalle Zurich. She is represented by 303 Gallery in New York City. Robert Greene is represented by Robert Miller Gallery in New York City where he had a one-person exhibition in 1998. He had a one-person exhibition in the Stedilijk Museum, Amsterdam in 1996. He has lived in Europe and has exhibited in museums and galleries there He presently lives in Los Angeles. Nicole Eisenman is represented by Jack Tilton Gallery in New York City and Shoshana Wayne Gallery in Santa Monica.
