# Whitney Bedford URL: https://vielmetter.com/artists/whitney-bedford/ Represented by Vielmetter Los Angeles Whitney Bedford’s precise visual language combines tightly rendered detail, lush colors, and evocative gestures in reinterpretations of historical landscape paintings by artists such as Milton Avery, Pierre Bonnard, John Constable, Edouard Vuillard, and others. Her utopian images of Arcadian landscapes are a visual lexicon within which she negotiates the burden of history. She uses the materiality of paint to mark and manipulate the images, highlighting the image to locate new emotional potential in the re-worked imagery. Her most recent paintings approach landscape through a temporal lens, drawing the verdant past into conversation with the increasingly arid present. In each painting, the movement of paint describes and embodies the power and beauty of nature’s creative and destructive forces. **Whitney Bedford** was born in 1976 in Baltimore, Maryland and lives and works in Los Angeles. She received her BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design in Providence, Rhode Island, in 1998, and her MFA at the University of California, Los Angeles in 2003. She was the winner of the 2001 UCLA Hammer Museum Drawing Biennial and received a Fulbright Graduate Fellowship from the Hochschule der Kuenste, Berlin, Germany.
