Von Lintel Gallery, Los Angelos, CA
July 16 - August 31, 2022
Von Lintel Gallery is thrilled to present Lightwaves, which will mark the gallery’s third solo exhibition with the artist. The work, which will be exhibited in our project room, is a continuation of the photographic montages that Rudko is known for. Concurrently, an earlier work from this same series, will be featured at the Getty Museum in its third rotation of “In Dialogue”, a series of ongoing installations that present contemporary photographs from its permanent collection, in conversation with European paintings, decorative arts, and sculpture, from the museum’s permanent collection galleries.
As in previous exhibitions, the work in this show is made from the collected vintage snapshots of friends, family, and a variety of internet vendors. The images are hand cut and organized according to color before they are assembled into new abstracted forms or pathways. The result never fails to pull the viewer in for a closer look. Rudko’s arranged visual puzzles seem to evoke common threads in our collective memories reaching into our pasts, as well as our present.
