Analia Saban (born 1980) is a contemporary conceptual artist that was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, but is currently living in Los Angeles, California. Her work takes traditional artistic media such as drawing, painting and sculpture and pushes their limits as a scientific experimentation with art making. Because of her pushing the limits with different forms of art, Saban has taken the line that separated the different art forms and merged them together.

Biography

Analia Saban was born and grew up in Buenos Aires, Argentina.[1] She earned her B.F.A in Visual Arts from Loyola University New Orleans in the year of 2001 and her M.F.A in New Genres from UCLA in the year of 2005.[2] She studied under the artist John Baldessari[3] and was a Research Institute Artist in Residency at the Getty Museum, Los Angeles, from 2015 to 2016.[4] She currently resides and works in the city of Los Angeles in the United States. [5] Her artwork is featured in many art museums across the country as well as around the world.[5]

Work

Saban often works with materials in ways that confuse or subvert their typical meaning or use in studio art practice. She describes her method of working as artistic, scientific, and archaeological,[6] due to her awareness of the larger social implications of her material and object-based inquiries. Of her work, Saban has said "I like to work as unconsciously as I can, letting ideas take over my production. I try to avoid “forcing” the creative process. I try to keep a constant level of experimentation, but sometimes I also have to sit, look at previous work, or experiments, or the empty wall, and wait.."[7] She seeks to redefine the traditional notions of painting by utilizing the medium of paint as the subject of her work often using historical art references and traditions[8].[9]

Some of Saban's more well known projects have involved completely unraveling a painted canvas and re-weaving the threads into scarves or rolling them into a "Painting Ball,"[10] bending slabs of marble or concrete and draping them over sawhorses,[10] and printing plastic bags out of hand-made cotton paper.[11] She continues to explore different art-making processes and materials in relation to her daily experience, by using methods such as unweaving paintings, laser-burning wood and canvas, molding forms in acrylic paint, and weaving paint through linen thread.[12]

She is the winner of the Norton Museum's 2012 "Rudin Prize For Emerging Photographers".[13]

Saban's work has been exhibited widely both nationally and internationally and are represented in the collections of the Getty Research Institute, in Los Angeles; Blaffer Art Museum and The Museum of Fine Arts in Houston; San Antonio Museum of Art in San Antonio; Mead Art Museum in Amherst; Albright-Knox Art Gallery and Hessel Museum of Art at Bard College in New York; The Israel Museum in Jerusalem; National Gallery of Victoria in Melbourne; [14] Hammer Museum at UCLA, Museum of Contemporary Art, and Los Angeles County Museum of Art in Los Angeles; Hessel Museum of Art at Bard College in New York; Norton Museum of Art in Florida; Centre Pompidou in Paris, and Fundación Proa in Buenos Aires, Allen Memorial Art Museum of Oberlin College, among others.[15]
