Artist Liza Lou sits down with Lisa Phillips, the Toby Devan Lewis Director of the New Museum, for a discussion of the artist's practice and work. Lou's Kitchen (1991-1996) was first shown at the New Museum as part of the exhibition "A Labor of Love" (1996), curated by founding director Marcia Tucker. This conversation was presented on the occasion of the book launch for Liza Lou (Rizzoli Electa, 2022) and co-presented with Lehmann Maupin.
Liza Lou (b. 1969) is an American conceptual artist whose work incorporates unusual craft materials, primarily beads. While attending the San Francisco Art Institute in California, Lou began working on what is now known as her breakout piece, Kitchen (1995), a 168-square foot replica of a complete kitchen covered in beads. Her works can be found in several museums, including The Whitney Museum of American Art in New York, NY, the Cleveland Museum of Art in Cleveland, OH, and the Honart Museum in Tehran, Iran.
