Artist Talk: Laura Owens

Laura Owens was born in 1970, in Euclid, Ohio, and lives and works in Los Angeles. Her practice explores the history of painting, the boundary between representation and abstraction, and a diverse source of references. Her work has been the subject of solo exhibitions at the CCA Wattis, Kunstmuseum Bonn, Kunsthalle Zürich, and the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles. She produced the designs for the 2016–17 lift tickets in collaboration with Aspen Skiing Company.

Laura Owens’s 2016–17 lift ticket project is commissioned by the Aspen Art Museum and the Aspen Skiing Company.
