Ingrid Calame: Step on A Crack…
Albright-Knox Art Gallery, Indiana, Buffalo, 09/25/2009 - 02/28/2010
ABOUT
Born in 1965, the American artist Ingrid Calame is best known for her artworks based on tracings of stains and marks found on city streets and sidewalks that she transposes onto museum walls. In June 2008, she became the inaugural artist in the Albright-Knox’s Artist-in-Residence program. Battling wind, rain, sun, and the heat generated by steel production, Calame and her team made hundreds of square feet of drawings, which she then transformed in her Los Angeles studio into the drawings and paintings comprising this exhibition. The drawings, traced at numerous sites in and around Buffalo, have, in the words of the artist “stopped short of being symbols—they are captured images that combine history, physical fact, decay, memory, and personal experience.”
