Christina Kee

Christina Kee is an artist and writer who has worked at The William Louis-Dreyfus Foundation since 2011, assisting with public programming and exhibitions of the works of artists such as George Grosz, James Castle, Stanley Lewis, and Graham Nickson. She has written on the work of numerous modern and contemporary artists and was a regular speaker on the Artcritical Review Panel. Originally from Toronto, she is a Studio School alumna (MFA 2006) and past assistant to the Dean.

If we accept the shorthand description of painting as a language, then Graham Nickson was the most elegantly fluent artist I will ever know. In his work and teaching he moved with the ease of true understanding between the physical and metaphorical facets of his art form with erudition, flair, and a rare and generous desire to give and communicate through his life’s work.
