Selections from the Hammer Contemporary Collection: Liz Craft
Jan. 14–Apr. 30, Hammer Museum
Liz Craft (b. 1970, Los Angeles) creates surreal sculptures that simmer with a sense of the absurd. Cartoony and dreamlike, her works are rendered with a mash-up of realistic detail and weighty materials such as bronze and steel.
Working in Los Angeles for many years, Craft chooses subjects that often evoke the idiosyncrasies characteristic of Southern California’s cultural landscape. In this exhibition, the Hammer Museum presents a small selection of works from the Hammer Contemporary Collection.
This exhibition is organized by Connie Butler, chief curator, with Emily Gonzalez-Jarrett, curatorial associate.
Exhibition Dates: Jan. 14–Apr. 30
Gallery Hours: Tuesday–Friday: 11 a.m.–8 p.m., Saturday-Sunday: 11 a.m.–5 p.m.
Venue: Hammer Museum
Price: Free
The Hammer is located at the corner of Westwood and Wilshire boulevards in Westwood Village, three blocks east of the 405 freeway’s Wilshire exit.
