CHECKLIST AND IMAGES OF THE EXHIBITION BIOGRAPHY

BY BRUNO L. DAVID

I am pleased to present, there are millions of suns left, an exhibition of new work by Lisa Bulawsky. The exhibition is presenting two interrelated series of work, The Doubt of Being and Like Leaves Like Ashes Like Stars. This is Bulawsky’s second solo exhibition at Bruno David Gallery.

Bulawsky’s works on paper and temporary public projects wrestle with ideas about the nature of time and matter through a perpetual sense of our mortality, which is fixed and final, but coexists with the fact that nothing is stable, everything changes. In her recent works – including The Doubt of Being, a series of large-scale printed collages – she explores the disorienting effects of pandemic time and deep time.

Like Leaves Like Ashes Like Stars is a rolling record of ruminations on subjective time. It is a loose, unbound suite of handprinted images originally conceived as a book. The prints range from hand drawn to photographic, diagrammatic to poetic, and include visual and literary quotes from other artists’ and authors’ ruminations on time. While there are over seventy-five images in the book, it remains intentionally incomplete and fragmentary. A selection of twenty images are included as part of the exhibition.

Lisa Bulawsky (b. 1962, Sunnyvale, CA) is based in St. Louis, MO. She received her MFA from the University of Kansas, and a BA from the University of California, Santa Cruz. Bulawsky’s works have been exhibited in the United States and internationally, including the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco (as part of the Fifty-fifty art collective), the Eleanor D. Wilson Museum in Roanoke, VA, and the Corcoran Gallery of Art in Washington D.C. among many others. Books featuring her work include Printmaking at the Edge (A & C Black, 2006), Printmaking: A Complete Guide to Materials and Processes (Prentice Hall, 2009) and American Print Makers (Shiffer, 2014). She has received numerous grants and awards including an individual M-AAA NEA Fellowship for painting and works on paper, a Puffin Foundation grant, the Marvin Bileck Artist-in-Residence award at Bowdoin College, and the Francis Niederer Artist-in-Residence award at Hollins University. Her prints are in many collections including the Spencer Museum of Art, the Nelson-Atkins Museum, and the Royal Academy of Art in Antwerp, Belgium. She has taught in the Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts at Washington University since 1996 and is the current chair of the MFA in Visual Art and the Director of Island Press.

Support for the creation of significant new works of art has been the core to the mission and program of the Bruno David Gallery since its founding in 2005. I am deeply grateful to Kennedy Austin, who gave much time, talent, and expertise to the production of this catalogue. Invaluable gallery staff support for the exhibition was provided by Jenny Rong, Hazel Tao, Kenya Mitchell, and Kalli Brown.
