About Ellen Frances Tuchman Studying at UCLA and California College of the Arts, Ellen Frances Tuchman received her BFA in Textiles. Incorporating ephemera such as matchbooks, beads, and paper quills with other unlikely materials such as nail polish and eye shadow, Tuchman repeats patterns of line and color, creating a visual labyrinth. In Out of My Mind, Tuchman's third exhibition with Pan American she has created a dialogue between her two bodies of work - the witty and nostalgia-packed narrative oeuvres and the painterly paper quill internal landscapes of the mind. Exploring the nature of our minds and the brain in this new body of work, Tuchman’s outlook is both serious and whimsical. Tuchman states “Clearly, I am slightly insane and the obsessive details in my work manifest a need for reason and order, but with humor and a light touch. Otherwise, life becomes much too grim.” A tension exists here exploring beauty vs. tragedy, big ideas vs. minute detail, and craft vs. art. Tuchman's work can be found in both Texan and bi-coastal private collections, as well as the Children's Medical Center in Dallas, the Federal Reserve Bank, General Electric, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art - Costume Institute, and Trader Vic's Dallas. Tuchman’s work is also featured prominently in the newly renovated Stoneleigh Hotel. In recent years, Tuchman has exhibited with the Arlington Museum of Art, the Lawndale Art Center in Houston, Gallery Sho in Tokyo, Japan, and the McKinney Avenue Contemporary in Dallas. |
