In-person Artist Talk with Meghann Riepenhoff
April 29, 2023 | Saturday 6pm
Free w/ RSVP

Please join us for a Masterclass Artist Talk with acclaimed photographic artist Meghann Riepenhoff whose camera-less cyanotypes are created in collaboration with the landscape and the ocean, at the edges of both. Paper coated with homemade cyanotype emulsion are draped along the shore, across branches, or under snow. Ice, rain, waves, wind, and sediment leave physical inscriptions through direct contact with the photographic materials.

Riepenhoff received her BFA from the University of Georgia, Athens, GA; and MFA from the San Francisco Art Institute, CA. Her work has been featured in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; New York Public Library, NY; Museum of Contemporary Photography, Columbia College, Chicago, IL; Center for Photographic Art, Carmel, CA; Worcester Art Museum, MA; High Museum of Art, Atlanta, GA; Denver Art Museum, CO; and Museo de la Ciudad, Queretaro, Mexico. Public collections holding her work include the Albright-Knox Art Gallery, Buffalo, NY; High Museum of Art, Atlanta, GA; Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, TX; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, CA; Worcester Museum of Art, MA; and Museum of Contemporary Photography, Chicago, IL.

Riepenhoff is the recipient of a John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Fellowship (2018), a Fleishhacker Foundation Grant (2015), and artist residencies at the Headlands Center for the Arts, Sasusalito, CA; and Banff Centre for the Arts, Canada. Her work is the subject of two monographs: Littoral Drift + Ecotone (2018) and Ice (2022), both published by Radius Books. Riepenhoff is based in Bainbridge Island, WA.
