Welcome to MAN’s first live chat! Our guest is New York-based artist Sarah Oppenheimer, who joins us from Rice University in Houston. To join the chat, click the link at the bottom of this post.
Oppenheimer’s newest work, D-17, is a commission for the Rice University Art Gallery. It opens tomorrow and will be on view through December 5. You can see her photo-documentation of the creation of the piece here.
Oppenheimer’s work is also on view at Pittsburgh’s Mattress Factory, an installation which I reviewed here and here. Oppenheimer has recently created work for the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego [at right: Oppenheimer, P-41, 2009; photo by Pablo Mason and courtesy MCASD] and the St. Louis Art Museum. Oppenheimer, who teaches at Yale, maintains her own website here.
