Camille Utterback and Monir Farmanfarmaian at Haines Gallery

April 4 - June 29, 2019

Haines Gallery, which represents Camille in San Francisco, features three of her large scale installations in a two-person exhibition with celebrated Iranian artist Monir Farmanfarmain.

The exhibition, Kaleidoscope Eyes, brings together the glittering mirrored mosaics of Monir Farmanfarmaian and the interactive digital installations of Camille Utterback, creating a dialogue between these two internationally acclaimed artists. Through the use of geometric invention and computer code respectively, both Farmanfarmaian and Utterback produce works in which forms develop from a set of generative rules.

Camille’s installations featured in the show are Precarious, Floating World, and Untitled 6. Photos by Robert Divers Herrick, courtesy of Haines Gallery, San Francisco.
