Repossessed Recinere (Deadhead) by Lucy Puls
Artist Reception: Friday, October 22, 6-8 PM In "Repossessed," Lucy Puls continues her exploration of the discarded items of our culture. With the attention of an anthropologist, Puls offers these items with a contemporary aesthetic. In this exhibition what is discarded is the very idea of a home—Puls has gleaned photographs and items from foreclosed houses. The surprise is that some of the items: disposals, chandeliers, door locks are lovingly remade in her sculpture studio from paper. Lucy Puls received her B.S. from the University of Wisconsin, Madison, and her M.F.A. from Rhode Island School of Design. Puls’ work has been exhibited internationally and she is represented in numerous collections including the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, the Oakland Museum, the Achenbach Foundation for Graphic Arts, the Kent and Vicki Logan Collection, and the Progressive Art Collection, Mayfield Village, OH. Puls is a Professor of Art at the University of California, Davis.
