Join us in-person for an Artist POV Tour of Sara Cwynar: Apple Red/Grass Green/Sky Blue with artist John Houck.
Trained in computer programming, the artist John Houck examines questions of human perception and memory through the use of technologies that range from digital photography to software coding. Houck’s recent work, for example, involves still lifes composed of formative objects from his youth that he photographs, rearranges, and reshoots. Images of these iterations are subsequently layered to create what Houck calls “aggregate photographs”—emblems of the manner in which imagination and recollection alter and distort our views of our past lives.
John Houck’s work is in several prominent museums and private collections, including the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York, The Museum of Modern Art in New York, The Los Angeles County Museum of Art, The Hammer Museum in Los Angeles, The Art Institute Chicago, San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, ICA Boston, and The Milwaukee Art Museum.
This event is on site and in-person. All guests will be required to provide proof of vaccination and wear a mask.
