Open Book: Linda K. Alpern

Monira Foundation is pleased to present Open Book with Linda K. Alpern. This exhibition of archives, photography and notes from conversations with Linda K. Alpern was created as an annex project to the exhibition Inner Mirror, Linda K. Alpern. In this presentation, visitors can get a closer look at Alpern’s creative process of her photographic work as well as stories shared with us about her mylar series. This Open Book display allows us to engage with a variety of images and a selection of stories told by Alpern through time. While on display, a new selection of images and stories by the photographer will be exhibited weekly, drafting new narratives, resembling a book, drawn by Alpern’s interest on the multiple ways of seeing and connecting with others.

Linda K. Alpern began doing photography in 1989 while working as a nurse for the artist Alfonso Ossorio. Alpern’s work appears in the permanent collections of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Guild Hall Museum in East Hampton, New York and The Parrish Museum, in Watermill, New York, where she has participated in many group shows. She has also exhibited her work at MMGallery Southampton, Tripoli Gallery Wainscott, The Church in Sag Harbor, and multiple other venues in the East End of Long Island.

Location: 2nd floor – Open Book gallery space
