Opening reception: April 18, 2009, 4-6pm
The Ben Maltz Gallery at Otis College of Art and Design is pleased to present the exhibition
3 Solo Projects: Lynn Aldrich, Jessica Rath, Carrie Ungerman opening Saturday, April 18, 2009 from 4pm to 6pm. On view through June 13, 2009, 3 Solo Projects is the second in a series of exhibitions highlighting the work of Southern California artists. Lynn Aldrich, Jessica Rath, and Carrie Ungerman have each created a new site-specific installation. While each work is independent, they are tied to a larger conversation about natural resources such as water. The three sculptors use common, readily available materials in quantity: 25,000 clear plastic water bottles, dozens of Navajo white rain gutters, and gallons of liquid latex to make beautiful, tactile, and poignant experiences addressing key metaphors of abundance, scarcity, growth, and decline.
Lynn Aldrich
Aldrich is a visual artist who loves text and ideas but makes sculpture. She received an MFA from Art Center College of Design. Her work has been exhibited internationally at Paula Cooper Gallery in New York Art Affairs in Amsterdam, Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Santa Monica Museum of Art, UCLA Hammer Museum of Art, and the Kampa Museum, Prague. Her work is held in many prominent private and public collections including the Calder Foundation; the Robert and Jereann Cheney collection; the Peter Norton collection; and the Alain Servais collection. Aldrich has received awards from J. Paul Getty Trust Fund Individual Artist Fellowship, City of Los Angeles Individual Artist Fellowship, and LACMA Purchase Award. http://www.carlberggallery.com/artists.php?artist=laldrich
Jessica Rath
Rath received her BA from the University of Missouri in 1990 and an MFA from California Institute of the Arts in 1996. She creates lyrical, uncanny sculpture and installations from her unsettling interpretations of nature. Her work has garnered her an Arts Bridge Residency at Headlands Center for the Arts in San Francisco, a Los Angeles MTA commission and two grants from the Durfee Foundation, and was most recently exhibited at Glendale Community College, Kellogg Gallery (Cal Polytechnic) and in the solo show “SONG TO SNORE” at the Torrance Art Museum. http://www.jessicarath.com/ART/Home.html
