In the late 1950s, I attended Oakland Technical High School where I met artist Sam Richardson...Category

- Nancy Baker, Registration 1, 2017, paper, acrylic, digital pigment printBy Nancy BakerLocated in Darien, CTIn Baker’s work, there is solace in the geometry of fundamentals, and a practice that focuses on the ephemeral nature of paper and the ease of its transportability, which allows her to create large-scale constructions. A desire for definitive certainties and incontrovertible truths in an era of “alternative facts”, precipitate the need for Baker to assert her clarification of evidence. A new major installation has been created for her exhibition at ODETTA that layers baroque design elements found in paper cup carrying trays with anxiety-provoking phrases, rendered as gorgeous, yet fragile paper spheres...Category
