My work toys with the concept of glorification vs. objectification vs. modification. I incorporate various facets of nature in to my work in order to comment on the mutability of life, gender and beauty. I have come to focus on painting as a medium because of its primarily masculine history in the western art canon.<\/p>\n<p>I am dedicated to my studio practice and intend to continue making art throughout the course of my life, no matter what path my career may take. In the future, I see my artwork marking a sexually fluid presence and stimulating dialogue in both the feminist and mainstream art worlds.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve started a project called PHILANTHROPART, for which I donate portion of the proceeds from my artwork sold to a new charity or non-profit organization each month. All of the work on this site is available for the project, but if you want more details please visit the project page on <a title=\"Kimleutwyler.com\" href=\"http:\/\/Kimleutwyler.com\" target=\"_blank\">Kimleutwyler.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-7847 alignnone\" title=\"Painting by Kim Leutwyler, USA\" alt=\"Painting by Kim Leutwyler, USA\" src=\"http:\/\/www.femininemoments.dk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/photo-1_KimLeutwyler_w.jpg\" width=\"445\" height=\"910\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.femininemoments.dk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/photo-1_KimLeutwyler_w.jpg 445w, https:\/\/www.femininemoments.dk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/photo-1_KimLeutwyler_w-146x300.jpg 146w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 445px) 100vw, 445px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em>&#8216;Roane&#8217;, oil on print.\u00a0Painting by Kim Leutwyler, USA<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-7848 alignnone\" title=\"Painting by Kim Leutwyler, USA\" alt=\"Painting by Kim Leutwyler, USA\" src=\"http:\/\/www.femininemoments.dk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/photo-3_KimLeutwyler_w.jpg\" width=\"445\" height=\"335\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.femininemoments.dk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/photo-3_KimLeutwyler_w.jpg 445w, https:\/\/www.femininemoments.dk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/photo-3_KimLeutwyler_w-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 445px) 100vw, 445px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em>&#8216;Untitled Self Portrait with C.B.M.&#8217;, oil on canvas.\u00a0Painting by Kim Leutwyler, USA<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-7849 alignnone\" title=\"Painting by Kim Leutwyler, USA\" alt=\"Painting by Kim Leutwyler, USA\" src=\"http:\/\/www.femininemoments.dk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/photo-4_KimLeutwyler_w.jpg\" width=\"445\" height=\"601\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.femininemoments.dk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/photo-4_KimLeutwyler_w.jpg 445w, https:\/\/www.femininemoments.dk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/photo-4_KimLeutwyler_w-222x300.jpg 222w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 445px) 100vw, 445px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em>&#8216;Carlhey&#8217;, watercolor on paper by Kim Leutwyler, USA<\/em><\/p>\n<h2>Related Link<\/h2>\n<p><a title=\"Kimleutwyler.com\" href=\"http:\/\/Kimleutwyler.com\" target=\"_blank\">Kim Leutwyler&#8217;s online portfolio<\/a><br \/>\n<a title=\"Adopt-a-Painting\" href=\"http:\/\/www.femininemoments.dk\/blog\/adopt-a-painting-project\/\">Adopt-a-Painting<\/a>, a kickstarter project by Kim Leutwyler<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kim Leutwyler: I create large scale figure paintings of LGBTQ-identified women, most recently focusing on those who have impacted my life in some way&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[405,19],"tags":[620],"class_list":["post-7845","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-artist-showcases","category-painting","tag-kim-leutwyler"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.femininemoments.dk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7845","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.femininemoments.dk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.femininemoments.dk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.femininemoments.dk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.femininemoments.dk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7845"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.femininemoments.dk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7845\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.femininemoments.dk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7845"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.femininemoments.dk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7845"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.femininemoments.dk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7845"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
