Louise Lawler - Open
Technique: C-Print on gelatin silver, ed. 5/10
Artist Biography: Louise Lawler is an American artist and photographer born in 1947 and currently based in Brooklyn, New York. Since the late 1970s, Lawler's work has focused on photographing portraits of other artists' works, paying particular attention to the spaces in which they are placed and the methods used to make them. Examples of Lawler's photographs include images of paintings hanging on the walls of a museum, paintings on the walls of an art collector's opulent home, artworks in the process of being installed in a gallery, and sculptures in a gallery that are viewed by viewers.Lawler is known for her distinct photographic style and her ability to capture the essence of other artists' artworks and the spaces in which they are placed. Her images often question the hierarchies of the art world, such as the difference between art in museums and art in private collections.In addition to her work in photography, Lawler has also made installations and sculptures in collaboration with other artists. His work has been exhibited in numerous galleries and museums around the world, including MoMA in New York, the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris and the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia in Madrid. Lawler has received numerous awards and recognition for his work, including the National Arts Club Gold Medal for Photography in 2014.
