For Open Research Program 12, Parasophia invites the American artist Louise Lawler to speak about the context of her practice, or the situations in the late 1970s and onward in response to which she has produced her work. Lawler, who came to be recognized in the late 1970s for her photographs of artworks in museums and private residences, describes art as being an integral part of a cumulative and collective enterprise viewed as seen fit by the prevailing culture. She notes that when she shows her work, she is showing the work of others—other artists, curators, collectors, wall painters, writers, advertisements, documents, fictions, all that contribute to resonance and recognition.
Lawler’s lecture will be held at the National Museum of Modern Art, Kyoto, where she has shown her work as part of the exhibition Images in Transition: Photographic Representation in the Eighties in 1990.

About the Open Research Program
The Artistic Director and his curatorial team will conduct part of their research for Parasophia: Kyoto International Festival of Contemporary Culture 2015 publicly, in the form of lectures and other events in this program.

Louise Lawler
b. 1947 in Bronxville, NY, USA; based in New York. BFA, Cornell University, 1969. Many solo exhibitions in the US and Europe since 1978. Louise Lawler is known for works based on her photographs of works by other artists, especially works of Classic Modernism, showing the contexts in which they are placed, including artworks installed for public or private viewing, artworks in the process of being installed, artworks in storage, artworks for sale, and more. Her works encourage and represent a critical discourse on art and the various contexts and principles of their presentation. Her work has been included in a few group exhibitions in Japan including Images in Transition, which traveled to the National Museum of Modern Art, Kyoto and the National Museum of Modern Art, Tokyo in 1990. Recently she has held a solo exhibition at Museum Ludwig in Cologne (Adjusted, 2013–14) and published an accompanying catalogue.
