SUMMARY:Yuko's Spring Has Come: Recent Paintings by Ayane Kurai
DESCRIPTION:The CRS gallery is pleased to announce \"Yuko's Spring Has
  Come\" — recent paintings by Japanese artist Ayane Kurai. The exhib
 ition will be up from Oct 30 – December 2, 2010 at CRS.\n\nAn openin
 g reception will be held Saturday, October 30, 2010 from 5:30 – 7:30
  pm during which time additional works by Kurai, not a part of the exh
 ibition, will be on display in the CRS Studio. The Artist Way program,
  an interview/discussion moderated by CRS Founder Yasuko Kasaki, will 
 begin at 6 pm.\n\nFollowing the Artist Way will be a jazz concert and 
 other performances in observance of the one-year anniversary of the pa
 ssing of Japanese artist Yuko Sueta.\n\nThe works in this exhibition a
 re large, thickly layered and heavily textured, semi-asbstract express
 ionistic oil paintings, mostly painted in the past four years and insp
 ired, in part, by the artist's recent experience of giving birth to tw
 o children while caring for her close friend, Japanese artist Yuko Sue
 ta, whose health steadily declined until she passed away last October.
  The subject matter and degree of abstraction of the works vary. What 
 holds constant and what distinguishes Kurai's works is their intensity
  of color and texture and the immediacy of their evocation of the colo
 rs and textures of a life fully experienced.\n\nAbout Ayane Kurai\n\nA
