LOS/NR cordially invites you to our next Opening Reception for "Framing Identity" highlighting the interplay between the intimate and the universal exploration of what defines us through the vision of four women artists—collaborative artists Katie Hargrave and Meredith Laura Lynn, photographer Hannah Altman and painter Jennifer Ruth Evans. The question of where self comes from has intrigued us for generations and theories have been established from Jung’s archetypes to Freud’s id, ego and superego to explain who we are and how self develops. The artists in this exhibition use the visual medium to explore personal, cultural and societal constructs of self. Their work unfolds as storytelling that investigates identity to spark a dialogue and foster deeper understanding of ourselves and our meaning. This is our Guest Curator Show running from March 8 to April 12, 2025, organized by Caleb Cain Marcus (MFA Columbia University.) Marcus has judged and participated as a reviewer for the Arnold New Prize, Critical Mass, Medium, LACP, NEPR and Review Santa Fe. He exhibited at the Ross Museum, the National Academy of Sciences in DC, Telluride Gallery of Fine Art, the Houston Center for Photography, Tufts Art Gallery, and Palm Beach Photo Center. His work is the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Getty Museum, the High Museum of Art, Norton Museum of Art, and Museum of Fine Arts Houston, and has been published widely including PDN, American Photo, Conde Nast Traveler, National Geographic, Orion and Audubon, Feature Shoot, Musee, Fraction, F-stop, Slate, Lens Culture, Smithsonian, My Modern Met and Hyperallergic. He is the author of "A Portrait of Ice" (2012), "A brief movement after death" (2018) and "Iterations" (2019). The gallery is open Tuesday to Saturday Noon pm to 4 p.m.
