Work of UCLA artists to be featured in 2010 exhibit in Madrid
Four School of the Arts and Architecture faculty members will help to represent Los Angeles in a special exhibition at the 2010 ARCOMadrid International Contemporary Art Fair in Spain. The fair, which generally highlights one country, will instead focus on Los Angeles as one of the most vibrant, diverse and multicultural contemporary art centers in the world. The exhibit, "Panorama: Los Angeles," will include art by Mary Kelly, Lari Pittman and Don Suggs - three professors in the Department of Art - and Jennifer Steinkamp, a professor of design media arts.
Steinkamp is an installation artist who works with new media, including video, in order to explore ideas about architectural space, motion and perception. She is the recipient of a J. Paul Getty Trust Fund and has exhibited in museums such as the Getty, LACMA and the Museum of Modern Art in Cleveland.
Kelly is known for her large-scale narrative installations that address questions of sexuality and identity. From 1989 to 1996 she served as the director of studios for the Independent Study Program at the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York.
Pittman is an internationally recognized artist and professor of painting and drawing whose works are included in the permanent collections of the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles, LACMA, the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York, the Museum of Modern Art in New York and many others.
Suggs is a lecturer in the Department of Art who has worked in various media and is known for his use of color. He has received two National Endowment for the Arts grants and has exhibited in LACMA, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and other venues.
The four professors are among 59 L.A. artists chosen because of their varied cultural, historical and experiential backgrounds. They will be joined by several UCLA School of the Arts and Architecture alumni and two current students.
