![]() ![]() Studio-Afternoon is in the permanent collection of the Long Beach Museum of Art. Joan Didion: What She Means is an “exhibition as portrait” of the California born writer and “grapples with the evolution of Didion’s singular voice as a writer, observer of place and family, and chronicler of our times.”* The exhibition is accompanied by an illustrated catalogue published by Hammer Museum and Prestel/DelMonico. Golden California light unites the magical landscape with the sacred space of the studio while abstracting its forms and architecture, bringing our attention to their poetic and intertwined relationships. ![]() ![]() ![]() Lundeberg is one of approximately 60 artists whose work is included in this exhibition that is chronologically laid out in four chapters following Didion’s life according to the “places she called home.”* Lundeberg’s Studio-Afternoon, 1958-59, manifests the artist’s own sense of home and her interest in interior and exterior spaces as well as the interplay of light and shadows on their surfaces. Connie Butler will lead a Lunchtime Art Talk on Helen Lundeberg at the Hammer on October 26, 2022. We are thrilled for the inclusion of Helen Lundeberg’s Studio-Afternoon, 1958-59, in the dynamic exhibition Joan Didion: What She Means at the Hammer Museum, organized by Hilton Als in collaboration with Connie Butler, chief curator, and Ikechukwu Onyewuenyi, curatorial assistant. ![]()
