Audible Currents of Connectivity
Art South Africa
Clive Kellner
Kim Lieberman is a painter of seductive surfaces and evocative content. She shows a predilection for rich textures, strong colour or absent colour, and obsessively random, spontaneous marks and patterns – used primarily to convey meaning.
2003 Every Interaction Interrupts the Future Art South Africa Kathryn Smith

Combining Sensual with Conceptual
SA Jewish Report
Robyn Sassen
Is it always necessary to reveal secrets? This was a question which immediately struck me on confronting the profound aesthetic of Kim Lieberman's recent work. The exhibition opened on November 1 by Rabbi Michael Katz of Chabad, Illovo, in the name of gematria and kabbalah and their role in Lieberman's work.

The David Exhibition Catalogue Curated by Liza Essers
"Much is made of an incident that happened in biblical times - the encounter between David and Goliath. What took only a moment has resonated through time, across cultures and continues to do so. Yet, what of all the numerous incidents that occur throughout time that impact silently?"

Kim Lieberman
Art South Africa
Robyn Sassen
Once I saw and heard a man singing liturgical song. He was physically unrefined, yet he did it with such sincerity that the sounds emitting from his mouth seemed to be lines of colour that melded and intertwined, forming beautiful tendrils. For me, this man and his song evoke ‘Influence’, a work central to Kim Lieberman’s ‘Human Matters.’
