PROFESSOR MIWON KWON // STUDIO VISITS on FRIDAY 24 MAY

Miwon Kwon is trained in architecture, holds a MA in photography, and has extensive curatorial experience from her tenure at the Whitney Museum of American Art in the early 1990s. She received her PhD in Architectural History and Theory at Princeton University in 1998, the same year in which she joined the faculty at UCLA to teach contemporary art history (post-1945). Her research and writings have engaged several disciplines including contemporary art, architecture, public art, and urban studies. She was a founding co-editor and publisher of Documents, a journal of art, culture, and criticism (1992-2004), and serves on the advisory board of October magazine. She is the author of One Place After Another: Site-Specific Art and Locational Identity (MIT Press, 2002), as well as lengthy essays on the work of many contemporary artists, including Francis Alÿs, Michael Asher, Cai Guo-Qiang, Jimmie Durham, Felix Gonzalez-Torres, Barbara Kruger, Christian Marclay, Ana Mendieta, Josiah McElheny, Christian Philipp Müller, Gabriel Orozco, Jorge Pardo, Richard Serra, James Turrell, and Do Ho Suh, among others. A major historical exhibition entitled “Ends of the Earth: Land Art to 1974,” co-organized with Philipp Kaiser, is on view at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles (closes Sept. 3, 2012) and will travel to Haus der Kunst in Münich, Germany (opens October 10, 2012). The exhibition catalogue of the same title is published by Prestel. Her next project will be a book-length study of the work of Felix Gonzalez-Torres.

Professor Kwon will be at Warner on 24 May, for 5 studio visits starting at 1:30PM. 

ANALIA SABAN ANNOUNCEMENT // STUDIO VISITS and BURKHARDT LECTURE ON 22 MAY

Analia Saban's (b.1980, lives and works in Los Angeles) work emanates between sculpture, painting, collage, photography and print-making. Mining art history in her experiments in color, form, and materials, she works in flat and sculptural media to debunk the mysteries associated with fine art, to delightful, sometimes, poignant formal effect. Her processes – across media, dimension, and scale turn to an exploration of physicality and time. Paintings are expanded to sculptural forms; sculptures are presented in two-dimensional strategies; and the patina of age is reproduced through a deft use of computer-aided methodology. Recent exhibitions include solo shows at Sprueth Magers, Berlin and Praz-Delavallade, Paris.

Analia will be here for 5 visits, starting at 1:30 PM on Wednesday 22 May, followed by a Burkhardt Lecture at 7PM.
