Kennedy Yanko channels Mary Magdalene in new Paris show

Original: In Paris, sculptor Kennedy Yanko channels Mary Magdalene

American sculptor Kennedy Yanko is presenting new work in Paris that takes Mary Magdalene as its subject, drawing on the biblical figure as a muse for her material-driven practice. Yanko, known for combining painted metal with found objects and skin-like fabric, uses the Magdalene theme to explore ideas of femininity, transformation and reclamation, and the show is drawing attention from the international art world during the Paris season.

Why now: The American sculptor's new Paris exhibition is attracting attention from the international art world during the city's busy gallery season.
