The portraits in the Livien Yin: Thirsty exhibit at Cantor Arts Center exist in the 21st century’s aftermath of such classical portraiture, comfortable companions to high-art graphic novels. Yin’s color palette, like Matisse, veers toward the fictional. The storytelling is imagined across a muted field of dreamy technicolors.
