Lou Peralta in Lenscratch

Lou Peralta was recently interviewed for the Lenscratch article "Photography into Sculpture: Lou Peralta" by Elizabeth Stone. 

 

"In 1970, Photography into Sculpture opened at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. More than 50 works created by 23 American and Canadian artists were included in the exhibition. These artists embraced new techniques, materials and technology to move the traditional photographic print off the wall. Peter C. Bunnell, director of the exhibition and Curator of the Museum’s Department of Photography stated that these groundbreaking artists were engaged with “a heightened realization that art in photography has to do with interpretation and craftsmanship rather than mere record making”. Lou Peralta of Mexico City, Mexico is no stranger to this realization and has been pushing at the boundaries of portraiture for over thirty years."
