Lita Albuquerque - United States

Art Brokerage: Lita Albuquerque American Artist: B. 1946. Born in Santa Monica, California artist Lita Albuquerque is an internationally renowned installation and environmental artist, painter, and sculptor. She has developed a visual language that brings the realities of vast time and space to a human scale and is widely known for her ephemeral works and public art. She gained national attention in the late seventies with her ephemeral powdered pigment installations pertaining to mapping, identity and the cosmos, executed in the natural landscape. In 1980 Albuquerque won international acclaim for her installation, "The Washington Monument Project," for the International Sculptural Conference. This led to numerous awards and commissions at sites, including the Great Pyramids, where she represented the U.S. at the International Cairo Biennale and received the Biennale Prize. Albuquerque has completed numerous site specific, ephemeral projects over the past two decades including works in the South Dakota badlands, Death Valley, deserts and sand dunes. Her work has been featured in numerous solo exhibitions and is widely collected. She also teaches at the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, CA. Listings wanted.
