Jessica Stockholder

The media list of a single Jessica Stockholder installation reads more like a list of things that you might pack last when moving from one place to another: couch cushions, plastic container lids, acrylic and oil paint, shoelaces, hardware, chain, plastic scoop, and toilet plunger. Even though Stockholder is best known for her large-scale, site-specific installations that link colors, forms, lines, and spaces into always surprising relationships, she has managed throughout her career to balance the production of these monumental, multi-dimensional, and theatrical endeavors with self-contained works that reflect a more intimate, human scale. The range of her work is covered here, and is complemented by Giorgio Verzotti and Michel Gauthier's insightful essays. Essays by Giorgio Verzotti and Michel Gauthier.
