description

Exhibition catalogue published in conjunction with show held at The Menil Collection, November 19, 2010 - February 20, 2011. Traveled to Los Angeles County Museum of Art, March 13 - June 5, 2011. Text by Franklin Sirmans and Michelle White. "American artist Vija Celmins is widely admired and respected for her sublime images of night skies and ocean waves. Vija Celmins: Television and Disaster, 1964-1966 looks closely at Celmins's early work, which is deeply engaged with the Pop Art scene of 1960s Los Angeles. The authors argue convincingly for a better understanding of this body of work, which is not well known by contemporary audiences, both within Celmins's overall career, and as part of the complicated historical context in which she was working." -- publisher's statement.
