Lisbeth Firmin

Painter / Printmaker

PLAYING IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD: SOHO; Frozen in Amber of the City

January 28, 2001

Firmin, Biker on Broadway

IN Lisbeth Firmin’s paintings of New York, human figures are suspended in time. They are often in motion, crossing intersections, meandering down avenues or cycling down narrow streets. (The image above is titled ”Biker on Broadway.”) In other works, tall buildings are juxtaposed against small residential walk-ups. The perspective is never straightforward but always leans toward the unusual.

From the New York Times
