This event has ended.

CUE Art Foundation presents a solo exhibition by Judy Linn, curated by Arlene Shechet. Titled LUNCH, the exhibition features a selection of photographs taken over the past 45 years.

Linn’s subjects are objects and scenes of the everyday—an apartment complex, a woman’s hair, the back of a truck—yet not as we experience them. In the space of Linn’s photographs, time is flattened, light and matter are made indistinguishable. The hierarchies of the visual world are disrupted—shadows, reflections, and images within the photographs hold equal materiality with the tangible. Shechet notes, “[Linn’s] universe is alive with outstanding things; ordinary stuff and the light and space and color in, around and between the everyday.”

In LUNCH, Linn presents the ordinary and familiar as the other, revealing to her viewer the inherent unknowability of the world and the fallibility of human vocabulary in describing it. Of her work, she writes, “I am trying to shed the words in my head and openly respond to a visual world.”
