A solo exhibition featuring a film and photographs by Judy Fiskin. This selection of Los Angeles-based Fiskin’s gelatin silver prints captures varied landscapes and vernacular architecture highlighting planned and unplanned symmetries, natural forms mirroring man-made, and anthropomorphic structures in several site-specific series. Informed by her study of art history, Fiskin’s attraction to her signature small-scale photography arose from looking and discovering works of art through reproductions.
Judy Fiskin was born in Chicago, IL and lives and works in Los Angeles, CA. She received her B.A. from Pomona College and her M.A. from University of California, Los Angeles. Fiskin’s work was included in several of the Pacific Standard Time exhibitions including In Focus: Los Angeles 1945-1980, J. Paul Getty Museum (2011-12) and Under the Big Black Sun: California Art 1974-1981, Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles (2011). Fiskin’s work is included in many museum collections including the J. Paul Getty Museum, Dallas Museum of Fine Arts, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, National Museum of American Art, Smithsonian Institution, and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.
