Description
Marking her fourth solo exhibition with Marx & Zavattero, New York photographer Liséa Lyons debuts a new series of chromogenic prints in an exhibition titled "Lineage", May 23 – July 2, 2009. Lyons’ current work weaves images of her own past with that of her primary subject — her teenage daughter — creating a dialogue that speaks to expectations, memory, and loss.For the first time, Lyons will show several old family photos scanned and re-printed. This new direction provides an exciting new arc to her already nostalgic sensibility. In addition to images of Lyons herself as a young child, seminal individuals and locations that have influenced her work are now made visible, including her parents and grandparents, as well as the Florida neighborhood and home where she grew up. This personal gesture, juxtaposed with the new images of her daughter continuing to mature, affects a sense of the passage of time: a concise, lived-through flashback that is quite extraordinary.
