American artist Louise Lawler was born in Bronxville, New York, in 1947, and is a prominent member of the Pictures Generation alongside others such as Cindy Sherman and Barbara Kruger. She is also known for her pioneering work in appropriation and conceptual art, as well as institutional critique. Although she has worked in a number of mediums, her career-long use of photography is most well known, specifically her photos of other artist’s work – such as of exhibition installations and pieces in varying stages of storage.
