Some Films is an installation of moving image works by the iconic Los Angeles-based artist, featuring Diary of a Midlife Crisis (1997), The End of Photography (2007) and Guided Tour (2010). This is Fiskin’s first exhibition in Canada, comprising a trio of seminal films made after she was unable to continue with her photographic practice.
Judy Fiskin (b. Chicago IL) was raised in Los Angeles and graduated from Pomona College, where her classmates included Mowry Baden, Chris Burden and James Turrell. She received a master’s degree in art history at UCLA, compiled and edited the journals of Richard Neutra, was co-director of Womanspace Gallery and has taught photography and media at California Institute of the Arts since 1977. In addition to her photography and video, she’s also an award-winning writer for her essay “Borges, Stryker, Evans: The Sorrows of Representation.”
