About The Work
Jessica Stockholder’s multimedia, genre-bending installations incorporate the architecture in which they have been conceived–blanketing the floor, scaling walls and ceiling, and even spilling out of windows, through doors, and into the surrounding landscape. Her works affirm the primacy of pleasure, the blunt reality of things, and the rich heterogeneity of life. Published and printed by Gary Lichtenstein Editions, this work is part of trees , a project inspired by Hollow Places Court in Ash-Tree Wood , a 2011 sculpture installation at the Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum in Ridgefield, CT where Stockholder worked with Gary Lichtenstein to screenprint on wood taken from a 125-year old ailing oak tree from the museum’s sculpture garden. Applying the same methodology to an edition of silkscreen prints on paper, this edition continues the artist’s concern with the transient nature of visual phenomena into direct collision with the permanence that trees represent. Spontaneously creating imagery that leaps from the page in a variety of different directions, she has achieved a quiet consistency that resonates across all 83 unique pieces. The color variations within the series are striking to behold, individually and as a collective group.
