Immersion and Form: The Expansive World of Judy Pfaff

A conversation between Joe Fig and Judy Pfaff

Known for her dynamic, site-specific installations that fuse painting, assemblage, and architecture, Judy Pfaff joins her friend Joe Fig for a wide-ranging conversation about their respective creative practices. As an artist and author, Fig’s work interrogates the role of the artist, the creative process, and the self-made universe of the artist’s studio. Coinciding with Cristin Tierney Gallery’s solo presentation of Pfaff’s historic works at Independent 20th Century, this talk will cover everything from welding to neon to gardening, from studio pets to the unpredictable realities of collaboration.
