On display now at CICA Vancouver is a solo show by American painter, Jesse Mockrin. As the gallery notes of the exhibition Succession, "Mockrin is interested in the fluidity of gender and the imbalance of power through re-envisioning Old Masters’ paintings. Her vivid portraits transform Old Masters subjects into unsettling, contemporary compositions, by cropping scenes or zooming in on body parts from Caravaggios or Vermeers. Mockrin has exhibited at the Biennale de Lyon, Lyon, France; Dallas Museum of Art, Dallas, Texas, USA; Rubell Family Collection, Miami, Florida, USA; Almine Rech Gallery, Brussels, BE and more."
