- Lot Description
Laurie Simmons (American, b. 1949). Group of three prints including two photogravures and one photolithograph from the "Ventriloquism" suite, each pencil signed and dated 1986 along the lower right; editioned 16/40 along the lower left. Published by Editions Ilene Kurts, New York, 1986. The photolithograph depicts a close-up of the puppet depicted in the two black-and-white photogravures.
Provenance: Distinguished Corporate Collection, Minnesota.
As a prominent member of the Pictures Generation, Simmons uses dolls, puppets, and other anthropomorphized subjects to explore objectification, domesticity, and American consumerism. In particular, she explores how these affect women. She's photographed miniature scenes, shot a series focusing on a custom-made Japanese "love doll," and made a feature starring Meryl Streep with a cast of puppets and Alvin Ailey dancers dressed as inanimate objects. Her works are in the collections of the International Center of Photography, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Moderna Museet, the Guggenheim Museum, the Stedelijk Museum, and the Whitney Museum of American Art.
