Carrie Mae Weems Art

American, b. 1953

Carrie Mae Weems is widely recognized for her revolutionary approach to the expression of narratives about women, people of color and working-class communities. With a complex body of work encompassing photography, text, fabric, audio, digital image, installation, performance and video, Weems asks us to look deeply at the two-dimensional image, to explore complex realities and revisit unexamined perspectives.

Weems has participated in numerous exhibitions at major museums, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Frist Center for Visual Art, the Solomon Guggenheim Museum in New York, the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles, and the Centro Andaluz de Arte Contemporáneo in Seville, Spain.

Weems has also received numerous awards, including the MacArthur “Genius“ Fellowship, the Rome Prize, the U.S. Department of State Inaugural Medal of Arts, BET Honors Visual Artist Award, and W.E.B. Du Bois Medal from Harvard University. She is represented in public and private collections around the world, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, NY; the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston; the Museum of Modern Art, NY; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; MOCA, Los Angeles; the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; Los Angeles County Museum of Art; and Tate Modern, London. Weems resides in Syracuse and Brooklyn, New York.

San Francisco. 'Seagull over Golden Gate Bridge, 1950s'. Book & Signed Print
By Fred Lyon
Located in Los Angeles, CA
An epic pictorial history of the City by the Bay Starting with an early picture of a gang of badass gold prospectors who put this beautiful Northern California city on the map, this ambitious and immersive photographic history of San Francisco takes a winding tour through the city from the mid–nineteeth century to the present day. Enjoy eye-catching views of the city’s most enduring landmarks and symbols: the Golden Gate Bridge, Chinatown, the picturesque trams that wind up and down the famously steep hills, the popular waterfront, its beautiful bay, and its spectacular cityscapes and vistas. San Francisco’s counterculture movements that shaped our collective consciousness are also featured prominently: the beats of North Beach, the hippies of Haight-Ashbury, the gay communities of Castro, and the Black Panthers of neighboring Oakland. Some of the city’s most famous residents also make appearances: Robin Williams, The Grateful Dead, Angela Davis...
