Cohen, Tuesday September 11th at 9:00PM
Liz
Cohen received her MFA from CCAC in 2000. She recently had a solo
show, CANAL, at the San Francisco Arts Commission Gallery and has
been in several group shows in the Bay area. She is an Affiliate
Artist at the Headlands Center for the Arts and will be a Resident
Artist at the MacDowell Colony this winter. Liz uses photography,
performance and installation in an effort to blur the distinction
between documentary, performance and real life. In her latest work
she compares her life as a first generation latina to the life of
two Panamanians: a transgender prostitute and her grandmother, an
immigrant. She explores the ways in which they all betray and prostitute
themselves to get what they want.
