Artist Talk with Christa Blackwood
Come join us Saturday, December 3rd at 3pm at Capsule Gallery. We will be hosting an artist talk with Christa Blackwood for her solo exhibition of photographs entitled “Prix West”.
For the last 4 years, Austin based artist Christa Blackwood has taken her large format film view cameras and models and hit the road. Traveling around Texas and across New Mexico, Colorado and Utah. Her work stages the nude male body within the majesty of North America’s gorgeous western landscape, and situates it in a genealogy of classical photographic studies of the human figure.
Christa Blackwood’s series, “Prix West”, was awarded one on the top 5 solo exhibitions of 2015-2016 by The Austin Critics Table and also featured in Lenscratch, The Austin American Statesman, Austin360, Fotofilmic, and Ain’t Bad Magazine. Work from the series has been exhibited at Anderson Ranch, Candela Gallery, Photo Methode Gallery and will be in Fotofilmic’s 2016 International touring exhibition in Los Angeles, Melbourne and Vancouver.
