/LA TIMES ARTICLE

ERIKA ROTHENBERG makes art that takes many forms—painting, sculpture, photography, etc.—and frequently uses words as well as images. Her work has been widely exhibited at galleries and museums including the Museum of Modern Art, New York, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago, and Documenta IX in Kassel, Germany. Rothenberg has taught at CalArts, UCLA and Otis College of Art and received grants from the Getty and Norton Foundations. Her work is in many private and public collections, including the Museum of Modern Art, New York; The Los Angeles County Museum of Art, The Museum of Contemporary Art Los Angeles, the Art Institute of Chicago; and the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago. Rothenberg has completed several large-scale public art projects, including The Road to Hollywood in Hollywood, California, and Freedom of Expression National Monument (in collaboration with architect Laurie Hawkinson and performance artist John Malpede) in New York City. Christopher Knight, writing in the Los Angeles Times, called the Road to Hollywood “an exceptional work of public art…it ranks among the best public art projects in L.A.” Roberta Smith, writing in The New York Times, said about FofE: “Anyone who wants to can mount the platform and speak his or her mind. Try it. It’s an American tradition, to be exercised in the art world and everywhere else.”
