Wilding Cran Gallery presents Two Chimneys, Catherine Fairbanks’s first solo show in Los Angeles. The exhibition will feature new sculptures and works on paper. The exhibition is structured around two large chimney sculptures that reflect on the ruins of domestic buildings across the West. Originally constructed according to a particular purpose, over time abandoned chimneys gradually assume the function of a monument. Like these chimneys, Fairbanks often makes use of forms and materials which first appear in culture one way, only to reappear later in another way, transformed. Catherine Fairbanks "Two Chimneys" will be on view until May 28, 2016 at Wilding Cran Gallery, 939 South Santa Fe Avenue, Los Angeles CA
