Since the 1970s, Barbara Bloom has utilized photography, installation, and book-making to arrange spaces in which themes can echo and ideas can unfold. Likening her approach to that of a novelist, she is less concerned with individual objects than with the relationships that she creates between them through arrangement, occlusion, reference, and apparent hierarchies of value. Born in Los Angeles in 1951, Bloom is affiliated with a group of artists referred to as The Pictures Generation. Her work has been celebrated around the world, including exhibitions at: The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; The Museum of Modern Art, New York; Museum Boijmans van Beuningen, Rotterdam; Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam; Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; the Venice Biennale; Kunstverein München, Munich; and The Serpentine Gallery, London. |
