About the artist

Sandy Skoglund

American

b. 1946

Sandy Skoglund moved to New York City in 1972, where she started working as a conceptual artist, dealing with repetitive, process-oriented art production through the techniques of mark making and photocopying. In the late 1970s Skoglund’s desire to document conceptual ideas led her to teach herself photography. This resulted in the kind of “staged photography” that other artists became involved with starting in the 1980s such as Cindy Sherman and David LaChapelle. This was a larger result of an interest in popular culture and commercial picture making strategies. These works bridge the boundaries between sculpture, installation art, and photography. She is renowned for her large format photographs of the original impermanent installations.
