SAN FRANCISCO, CA
.-Fraenkel Gallery is presenting an exhibition of 45 photographs by Diane Arbus, curated by acclaimed contemporary artist Carrie Mae Weems. A long-time admirer of Arbus s work, Weems has selected images spanning Arbus s fifteen-year career, from 1956 until her death in 1971. The exhibition is on view at 49 Geary Street from June 3 to August 13, 2021, and will be followed by an exhibition devoted to Weemss own work in September.
Weems has cited Arbus, along with David Hammons, as artists of paramount importance to her. To inaugurate Fraenkel Gallerys recently announced representation of Weems, the artist was invited to curate an exhibition of Arbuss photographs, the sole directive being to focus on works that speak powerfully and directly to her.
