DESCRIPTION:Summer Series: Featured Artists and Conversations are free and open to the public\, however space is limited and registration is required.  Can’t make it in person? CLICK HERE TO VIEW THE PROGRAM VIRTUALLY. Liz Larner (b. 1960\, Sacramento\, CA) attended the California Institute of the Arts\, where  she received a BFA in 1985.  Larner’s work explores and extends the conditions and possibilities of sculpture. Her  works are informed by the relationship between object\, viewer\, and their surroundings as  well as a deep interest in a wide array of materials and their particular qualities. She  experiments with abstract sculpture made in fiberglass\, crystals\, paper\, clay\, aluminum\,  steel\, rubber\, epoxy\, mirror\, cloth\, and even bacteria. An inventor of new forms\, Larner  creates sculptures which defy easy description by design.  In April 2022\, the Walker Art Center\, Minneapolis will present a survey exhibition of  Larner’s work\, Don’t put it back like it was\, co-organized with SculptureCenter\, Long  Island City\, where it was mounted earlier this year. In June 2022\, Kunsthalle Zürich will  open an exhibition dedicated to Larner’s work titled below above.
