Kate Shepherd (born 1961 in New York City) is an American artist whose work has been shown in galleries and museums since 1996. In her unique approach to painting, Shepherd calls on her training in art and architecture, applying thread-like lines of oil paint upon highly saturated layers of enamel. The refined lines suggest a diagrammatic drawing of recognizable and referential structures, as well as more abstracted forms. Shepherd's works can be found in numerous public collections, including (The Phillips Collection ), (Indianapolis Museum of Art ), (Detroit Institute of Arts ), (Los Angeles County Museum of Art ), (Museum of Fine Arts, Boston ), and (Albright-Knox Art Gallery ) among others. She is represented by (Galerie Lelong ) in New York City and Paris, (Anthony Meier Fine Art ) in San Francisco, and (Barbara Krakow Gallery ) in Boston. While they show a strong sense of resolve, her paintings invoke a sensitivity of personal association and recollection. Her color is chosen to evoke either the emotional content of the work or to self-consciously show and contradict the trope at hand. The delicate lines are juxtaposed against glossy, durable enamel, a paint often used for architectural and industrial surfaces. She uses joined wood panels, rather than canvas which enables a mirror-like surface. Viewers often see their own reflection as much as the applied image. Hence the paintings function in real space and implied space simultaneously. Shepherd also makes more blatant works about color using screen printing and painted wood. Some include triangles based in Josef Albers’ pedagogy. The wood works span from stackable toy blocks to jigsaw puzzles. == Exhibitions == Shepherd has had solo exhibitions at the (Phillips Collection ), Washington D.C.; Portland Institute for Contemporary Art, Portland, Oregon; Otis College of Art & Design, Los Angeles, California; the Lannan Foundation, Santa Fe, New Mexico; and the Chinati Foundation, Marfa, Texas, among many gallery exhibitions.
