About The Artist:
The work of Houston-based artist Laura Spector was shown as the inaugural exhibit of the Georgetown Art Center when it opened its doors in October 2013. Aptly labeled as our “Ten Year Anniversary Exhibit”, Laura’s August-September showing at the Art Center will present a sampling of her nationally and internationally acclaimed work.
Laura is perhaps best known for her Museum-Anatomy project which began in 1996, where she collaborated with museum curators in 16 countries searching for hidden, stolen, lost, and destroyed paintings to be re-contextualized in paint onto the human body and made permanent through photography.
Widely honored, Laura is currently an Artist-in-Residence recipient of the Joan Mitchell Foundation and teaches art at the School of Continuing Studies at Rice University, The High School for Performing and Visual Art, and private studio lessons.
