Sarah Charlesworthborn 1947 in East Orange, NJ Galerie Tanit is pleased to present a selection of works by American artist Sarah Charlesworth in her first exhibition in Munich. Charlesworth is a visual artist and photographer who has exhibited widely in the US and abroad. With over fifty individual exhibitions and presence in major museum shows and collections, Charlesworth is one of the seminal artists whose work has been instrumental in bridging the gap between fine art and a critical practice of photography. Sarah Charlesworth’s work as a whole concerns the language of photography within contemporary culture and the selected works from these series highlight some of her concerns. For her exhibition Selected Works 1978-2009 Galerie Tanit will be showing a selection of work from each of four different series: Modern History, 1977-1979, Figure Drawings conceived in 1988 and produced in 2008, Neverland, 2002 and Work in Progress, 2009. Charlesworth’s work is currently on view at the Metropolitan Museum in New York in an exhibition entitled The Pictures Generation, 1974-1984, in Printed Mater at the Fotomuseum Winterthur, Switzerland, as well as, Images and (Re)presentations at Le Magasin, Centre National d’Art Contemporain in Grenoble, France. Her work is included in numerous public collections including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Solomon R Guggenheim Museum and the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York, as well as, The Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles, the Victoria and Albert Museum in London and the Stedelijk Van Abbemuseum in Eindhoven, Netherlands.
