About
For over two decades, Libby Black has worked across drawing, painting, and sculpture to develop a tactile language that foregrounds the material, political, and emotional dimensions of the everyday. Best known for her sculptures—rendered in paper, paint, graphite, and hot glue—she transforms familiar objects into portals that reveal the intersections of personal memory and collective cultural meaning.
SF/Arts Curator Insight
Every Libby Black exhibition is an invitation into the artist's psyche, revealing her wide-ranging curiosity through deft reproduction of items singled out for examination and critique. Black's expansive mind and busy hands must be in constant coordinated motion, working through the personal and cultural significance of favored objects and images, meticulously reproduced. Glorious watercolors celebrate the natural world. Paper, hot glue, and acrylic replicas of luxury goods form tableaux of desire. Loving facsimiles of artist monographs reveal aesthetic and intellectual influence. Come for the exquisite craft; share the obsession.
