Join us January 30, 2pm PST on Zoom for our Virtual Open House with resident Jenny Perlin.

Join us this afternoon for our Virtual Open House: Vesna Pavlovic in conversation with Karley In her work, Vesna Pavlovi explores an evolving relationship between memory in contemporary culture and the technologies of photographic image production. She treats photographic archives and related artifacts as material to produce new images and installations. The archives, both personal and public, reveal ideologies behind them, histories they represent, and memories they invok...e. Vesna challenges traditional modes of photographic representation and materiality and the physical nature of photographic media. During her research residency in December 2020, Vesna will be working from her studio in Nashville, Tennessee. She will conduct archival research about the Morongo Basin heritage and the history of homesteading initiatives of early 20th century. She will explore ideas of conquering the unimaginable landscape and its effect on land and housing politics. The first part of this residency will allow her to connect with various artists, organizations in the region. Vesna is particularly interested in the oral histories and radio archives underlining the utopia and individualism tied to the American West.

Join us this Saturday!
