Congratulations to Melissa Ann Lambert: Our December 2012 Artist Of the Month

When Melissa Ann Lambert was asked in the interview an interesting question: One hundred years from now, what do you want people to think/ remember about you?

She answered: Well, I'm rather fond of what museum curator Peter Frank wrote about my work:

“MELISSA ANN LAMBERT produces images of profound depth and mystery, even when their sources and subjects are as familiar to us as our own names. Exploiting new technologies and new sources of visual material, Lambert conjures a world – perhaps a universe – that reveals its secrets and its complexities with a reticent grandeur, cloaking them in an obscurity resistant, but ultimately not immune, to the eye’s penetration. In this way, even when creating portraits of well-known people and including well-known things in her atmospheric compositions, Lambert poses us a gentle challenge, to come into her visual realm, where events unfold gradually and resonantly.”
