Lalani Nan Paintings

Lalani Nan, making art is a legacy passed to her from her mother and her grandmother. Her visual awareness and strong color sense were cultivated from a young age; painting and drawing were a major part of her daily life. As a child, Nan has a vivid memory of shopping with her grandmother in a silk shop. As the store clerk tossed different silks over the counter, each bolt glowed and shimmered with light, creating mystery as it creases and folds. This memory has never faded and became a central influence in her art. Nan’s paintings express her passion for the tactile nature of fabrics and their topographies. Each painting is built slowly with many layers of pigment, each color a building block, integral to the richness and depth of hues in her seemingly monochromatic canvases.i Nan received a BFA from the Atlanta College of Art. She works and lives in Woodstock, New York.

Questions About Lalani Nan Paintings
  • 1stDibs ExpertJanuary 10, 2025
    Nan Goldin is famous for her work as a photographer. She was particularly drawn to the avant-garde music scene in Manhattan in the late 1970s and early ’80s, and “The Ballad of Sexual Dependency” series would include many photos taken in her newly adopted city. Goldin first exhibited the series at the Whitney Biennial in 1985 before publishing it as a book a year later. In its startling honesty, Goldin’s gripping portraits captured sexual relationships, drug use, intimate scenes in the homes of families, partying at bars, domestic violence and the AIDS-related horrors faced by those in the era’s LGBTQ+ community. Over the years, Goldin has collaborated with Japanese photographer Nobuyoshi Araki and completed projects for Jimmy Choo and Bottega Veneta. While her work has broadened to include New York City skylines, portraiture and commercial fashion photography, her commitment to documentary-style honesty has never wavered. In 2006, as part of Goldin’s "Chasing a Ghost” exhibition in New York City, a presentation was projected on three screens involving videos, photography and a musical collage focused on her older sister, Barbara, who took her own life in 1965. Among Goldin’s many accolades are her admission to the French Legion of Honor in 2006, the Hasselblad Foundation International Award in 2007 and the Lucie Award in 2014.
