Lisa Oppenheim is an American artist working in photography and film, frequently re-activating archival images through analog darkroom processes such as photograms and rephotography. Her work reframes historical source material, including newspaper photographs and botanical specimens, to interrogate how images circulate and accrue meaning over time. Her work has been exhibited at institutions including the Museum of Modern Art, New York, and Kunstverein Hannover.
