LYNN RICHARDSON

 

September 8 – October 2

Opening Reception: Thursday, September 8, 5 to 7 pm

 

 

Lynn Richardson’s new work, consisting of very large, very dynamic sculptural installations made of elegantly crafted high-tech materials, is an exploration of contemporary commercial imagery and architectural representation. Richardson examines the conflict between the industrial and natural worlds in ways that are bold, innovative, and visually entrancing.

 

Linking her own aesthetic concerns with those of artists as far-ranging as film maker Michelangelo Antonioni and minimalist sculptor Donald  Judd, Richardson occupies a highly engaging territory that is both formally seductive and intellectually rich.

 

These new pieces examine a changing American landscape in which “reduction and repetition replace uniqueness and diversity,” and do this in a beautiful, thought-provoking way that shouldn’t be missed.

Inter-Glacial Free Trade Agency.ca – Lynn Richardson

September 12 through October 2

Sculptor Lynn Richardson exhibits her site-specific kinetic installation that examines the relationship between governments and corporations through the guise of a trade show. The exhibit focuses on the end products being marketed to the public, all branded with the same logo to convince the viewer that in the "new world" there is only one choice. Richardson, who received her M.F.A. from the University of Texas (Austin), teaches at Keene State College. She has exhibited her work throughout Canada, the United States and Asia, and is the recipient of the prestigious Jean Mitchell Foundation M.F.A. grant, which included an exhibited at the Cue Art Foundation in New York.

Lowell, MA - The Art Department at UMass Lowell is pleased to present an installation by Canadian born artist, Lynn Richardson, in the University Gallery from November 8 – December 2.
“Inter-Glacial Free Trade Agency” is an exhibition that examines the relationship between governments, corporations and the collateral effects of this association on our physical environment. Richardson focuses on the
complexities of this affiliation and the impact on the natural environment. The installation includes a variety of materials that replicate nature and architectural-type objects, including multiple “iceberg”formations cascading off the walls and spilling onto the floor, a wooden plank fence along the perimeter, representing the 4000-mile shipping route of the Northwest Passage. Adding to the apocalyptic feel, a hypnotic creaking sound generated from multiple “oil pump” apparatuses.

Print-ready, full-color images available upon request.

Installation

Préoccupée par l'exploitation continue du monde matériel à l'aide de la technologie, Inter-Glacial Free Trade Agency examine la relation entre les gouvernements et les corporations en empruntant le modèle du salon commercial. L'exposition met l'accent sur des produits de consommation ciblant jusqu'au tout dernier client ; un équipement de survie à la mode pour une ère glaciale d'origine humaine, déclenchée par le réchauffement planétaire.

Lynn Richardson a reçu une MAV de l'Université du Texas, spécialisation sculpture, et détient un BAV spécialisé de l'Université du Manitoba. Née à Winnipeg, elle vit et travaille au New Hampshire.

Harcourt House Arts Center
Business As Usual


Harcourt House Arts Centre is pleased to present Lynn Richardson’s exhibition, Business as Usual, from February 28 to April 5, 2008.

Canadian installation artist and sculptor Lynn Richardson explores the conflict between industry and the natural environment in this re-imagined arctic landscape. Influenced by the political rivalry over the Arctic and its resources, she investigates the presence of corporate and government powers and their physical effect on the landscape. While glaciers are melting faster than predicted, new resources and minerals are becoming readily accessible. She questions whether Canada’s enforcement of sovereignty is indeed a territorial act or if it is to protect interests in oil, minerals and the fishing industry under the contractual agreement of NAFTA. www.lynnrichardson.ca
