Linda Van Boven

Florence Lynch Gallery, New York

first New York solo exhibition

The exhibition includes a body of photographs spanning from 1999 to the present.

In the form of a film setting, with stills and repetitive images, Linda Van Boven works with photography as a cinematic source. For this exhibition, Van Boven will continue her discourse with the cinema. She will present a series of aluminum-mounted photographs that are sequential images, charged with emotions. Rhythmic in content and structure, the images range from clay figurines either in a dance or boxing position to actual figures, as in Connected, wherein a woman manipulate an electrical wire and monitor in three successive imageries.

Born in Arnhem, The Netherlands, Van Boven lives and works in Amsterdam. She studied at the Gerrit Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam and at the Academia di Belle Arti di Brera in Milan. She has participated in group exhibitions in Europe and the U.S. and had worked on several public projects in The Netherlands, Russia, and Italy. Since 1995 to date, she has won twelve public commissions, with the Hedson Corporation, Gemeente Amsterdam, H.H vormgeving, KPGM international, Randstad Uitzendburo in Haarlem, Randstad Uitzendburo, Amsterdam, among others.

Opening Reception: Thursday, September 6, from 6:00 to 9:00 p.m.

The Mondriaan Foundation, The Netherland-America Foundation, and The Consulate General of the Netherlands generously sponsor the exhibition. A catalogue with text by Deborah Frizzell and Franklin Sirmans is available.

Gallery hours are Wednesday through Saturday from 11:00 to 6:00 p.m.
