Jean Edelstein

In performances, I have focused on concepts integrating art, music and dance with theaters, galleries and museums. My paintings primarily work with the figure and I have recently enjoyed using Chinese accordion books to do paintings of orchids, landscapes, gardens and performances.

I record my travels and daily experiences in these books. As life unfolds, I paint a narrative image of that unique time and place.
