Barbara Strasen, “Iguana William Morris (diptych)”, 2011, acrylic on canvas, 48×72 inches

Barbara Strasan Solo Exhibition at the Long Beach Museum of Art

Barbara Strasen: Layer by Layer opens November 20, 2015 at the Long Beach Museum of Art and runs thru February 21

In twenty-four works plus two installations, all created in the twenty-first century, Strasen

presents us with a fresh take on our environment. Strasen involves viewers in multiple ways: her works

appear to shift depending on the viewer’s point of view. She is interested in providing multiple points of

view from great distance down to “nose-to-paper” closeness. The imagery ranges from natural

history—birds, animals—to contemporary micro and macro images of vegetables, anatomy, fireworks

and astronauts diving through space.
