				LIBBY BLACK Headlands AIR '02 Untitled 2006 Digital Pigment Print with handwork 16.5"  x  11"
				Libby Black inventively explores a charged, ambivalent relationship to luxury goods. Her drawings and paper sculptures of pricey consumer objects travel deep into psychosocial territory. They are about collective consumer distraction and misplaced expressions of love. She is perhaps best known for Benz, her life-size paper replica of a white 1969 Mercedes 280SL convertible, as well as her paper replicas of Louis Vuitton luggage and accessories. She has been awarded residencies at Montalvo Arts Center and the Headlands Center for the Arts, among many honors. Her work has been exhibited recently at Heather Marx Gallery and Bay Area Now 4 at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts. Black received her BFA from the Cleveland Institute of Art and her MFA from the California College of the Arts.

				KATHRYN SPENCE Headlands AIR '06 Untitled 2006 Digital Pigment Print 11"  x  14"
				Attention to detail and observation of the natural world figure in recent work by San Francisco artist Kathryn Spence, who fashioned realistic-looking owls that she has seen in the wild out of her shirts, coats and pants. The piece made for Headlands is a photo from her sculpture she altered to look more like a drawing. Selected shows include the 2005 Corcoran Biennial in Washington, group shows at the Isreal Museum, Jeruselem, SFMOMA, Mass College of Art, Boston, the California Biennial, and Torch Gallery, Amsterdam. Museum solo shows include the Kemper Museum in Kansas City, and the Johnson Museum at Cornell University. She was a 2005 recipient of an 'Anonymous was a Woman' grant. She is represented by Stephen Wirtz Gallery, S.F. and Carl Berg Gallery, Los Angeles.

				JIM DRAIN Headlands AIR '06 Untitled 2006 Digital Pigment Print 11"  x  14"
				Exuberant use of color and pattern are a striking theme in the art of Jim Drain. His medium ranges from silkscreen, drawing, and collage to video and sculpture. The work packs a visual punch, saturating the viewer with color and pattern as it incorporates materials such as acrylic yarn, fun-house mirrors and bath towels printed with pin-up girls. The result can be at once futuristic and tribal, playful and mystical, as with the machine-knitted sculptures that won him the Baloise Art Prize at the 2005 Basel Art Fair. He has exhibited at P.S.1, New York; Pompidou Center, Paris; the 2004 Lyon Biennial; Deitch Projects, New York; Foskal Gallery Foundation, Warsaw; and at the Whitney Biennial, 2002, as part of the art collaborative Forcefield. Drain is represented by Greene Naftali Gallery in New York, and lives in Miami, FL.

				NICOLA LÓPEZ Headlands AIR '06 Untitled 2006 Digital Pigment Print 11"  x  14"
				New York-based Nicola López constructs drawings, prints, sculpture and large installation work based on human-built landscapes saturated with signs of mobility, speed, growth and the glorification of technology. The physical process of building each piece reflects the evolution that urban landscape undergoes by her layering of architecture, history, technology and topography that make up the contemporary environment. She draws on the visual language of cartography in order to evoke the idea of mapping. Her map-like images represent how our actual world is structured, not on a literal geography but on an experiential level. López’s solo exhibitions includeShe has shown in Greater New York, 2005, PS 1, NY and Maps and Other Myths, LACS Gallery at SUNY Stonybrook, NY. López attended Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture and received an MFA and a BA from Columbia University, NY.
