Slash: Paper Under the Knife

I saw the most amazing exhibition at The Museum of Arts and Design -- Slash: Paper Under the Knife. It is a group show of over 40 artists whose works all involve cut paper. The pieces were all so incredible; they all showed so much mastery of technique, and were all so intricate and wonderfully implemented.

I liked almost all the pieces. Maybe two or three didn't quite do it for me, but for the most part I was blown away.

Pictured here is a cut out by Rob Ryan that includes lovely, romantic words. So many of the pieces were emotionally evocative. All of them worked on several levels, and there was such a range of texture and scale, delicacy and muscularity. I cannot recommend this exhibition enough.
