About The Artwork

Limited Edition of 31. This edition is a dimensional treatment of the ideas behind Space Experiment VI: It is a similar composition and subject matter and also uses interruptions in the printed area to imply overlapping by snow-covered areas. I revisited this composition after developing a vocabulary of actually cutting folding tearing and layering the paper (as opposed to the printed replication of these manipulations). Just as the printed stripes in Space Experiment VI are interrupted by a (printed) torn edge, the edges of the more naturalistic rock strata are interrupted by either cutting or tearing the paper. Cutting the paper V. tearing the paper has different effects: The continuation of the contours of the snow is implied (across space) by the cut edges curvature of the darker printed areas. The rock strata images are printed on a second layer and “peak” through the top layer, which has no printing at all. (This is, structurally, the way the earth is exposed under a layer of snow.) There is a play between the actual cut edges and the printed edges of the rock strata and the actual torn edges and the printed deckle edges of the white spots within the printed rock strata. The double deckle edge in the left corner demonstrates that there are two layers of paper at work.

Sandy Bleifer received her B.A. in Fine Arts at U.C.L.A. in 1962 and worked as an Artist in Residence, an art teacher, docent and publisher of curriculum materials in the arts. With the support of “Space”, a seminal Los Angeles gallery under the direction of Edward Den Lau, she exhibited and sold her work from the early ‘70s through 1997. The artist's work is in over 200 private and public collections worldwide. Her personal idiom began with silkscreen, collage and an exploration of of paper: a continuing discovery into its complex nature and its ability to serve as a metaphor for the world around us. Early in her career as an exhibiting artist, social and political activism crept into the mix. Soon she began creating art installations that became a focus and galvanizing force for the reconsideration of major historical events: the Holocaust and the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. In the mid-1990s she focused her attention on a pivotal moment in Los Angeles’ contemporary history: the revitalization of downtown LA. Now in recent years, she is further imbuing her art with a pro-active agenda using interactive installations, video and community engagement with threads that can be seen in her prior aesthetic concerns – paper as a metaphor for life, environment and the human condition.
