Dorit Cypis
Centipede, 1985
cibachrome

Psycho represents questions of corporality, seeing and being seen and  
the personal and social constructions which frame our bodies and our  
sight. In this formative work of Cypis’ career exploring  
subjectivity and social relations, identity, configured by cultural  
histories, becomes re-configured through the body as the repository  
of experience, memory, dream, fantasy and desire.

Dorit Cypis’ education as an artist at the Nova Scotia College of  
Art and Design 1972-75, and at the California Institute of the Arts  
1975-77, were informed equally by feminism, conceptual art and the  
questioning of representational forms. Her work moved seamlessly  
between photography, performance, cinema, and sculpture. In 1983  
Cypis developed a strategy using multiple, overlapping slide  
projections to be interrupted by a moving body called “open spiral  
animation” that bridged live performance, cinema and photography.

David Askevold
One of the Ten States in the West, 1978-79
color c print

David Askevold, a resident of Nova Scotia, Canada, will be  
represented by a selection of photographic work from the 1970’s.  
Askevold is a pioneer of using narrative text and photographs in  
conceptual structures to represent possible scenarios located  
somewhere between dream, fantasy and memory, riding a thin line  
between interiority and social reality.

Askevold was a teacher at the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design  
during that institution’s formative years between 1968-1974. He is a  
frequent visitor to Los Angeles, and has taught both at California  
Institute for the Arts and at Pasadena Art Center.
