Drawing from American folk-art and craft traditions, the work of Bay Area artist Lena Wolff is at once connected to histories of minimalism, Op art, feminist and political art. Forms of Forms of Forms presents new material and fabrication explorations made during her residency at Local Language, alongside drawings and collages from her studio and archives of her activism.
Lena Wolff is an interdisciplinary visual artist, craftswoman and activist for democracy who has lived and worked in the San Francisco Bay Area since the early 1990’s. Wolff’s work extends out of American folk-art traditions while at the same time being rooted in minimalism, geometric abstraction, Op art, social practice, feminist and political art. Her broad interconnected artistic output includes drawing, collage, sculpture, text-based works, music and public projects. In recent years, she generated several projects that contribute to civic engagement, including a widespread anti-hate poster campaign and a public art initiative to boost voter participation that gained national reach in the past three election cycles in the US.
