Vija Celimns’ intricate works of ocean waves, desert floors, and celestial skies pare art down to its essence, reminding us of the complexity found in the natural world and the human attempt to represent it. Born in Latvia in 1938, Celmins immigrated to Indiana with her family in 1948, fleeing Soviet occupation. She attended graduate school at UCLA in the 1960s, and remained in Los Angeles, one of the few female artists of her generation recognized for her work. In 1981, she moved to New York. In 1997, she was awarded the MacArthur “genius” fellowship. In our film, Celmins leads us through her 2019-2020 retrospective at the Metropolitan Museum of Art (2019-2020), reviews photographs at her Soho studio, works on a wood print, and paints at her Water Mill studio. Also featured are the co-curators of the retrospective, Gary Garrels and Ian Alteveer, and Starr Figura, Curator of Drawings and Prints at the Museum of Modern Art.
