For Monica Rezman, it's all about the hair. The artist, who splits her time between Chicago and India, explores the beauty, absurdity, eroticism, and transformative powers of the strands sprouting from our heads and torsos. Her incredibly detailed, classically rendered drawings of masses of strands, matted and curled in austere arrangements, hang wraithlike against stark white fields. Her recent foray into photography explores follicular concerns as well, portraying playful, kinetic images of her exuberant young daughter in a variety of wild wigs. (AM)
