for Norman Lundin
Norman Lundin
American, born 1938
Lundin's illusionistic images appear to be careful recordings of actual interiors, objects and lighting effects, but he doesn't work from direct observation. "Illusionism attracts me not so much because it allows me to make imitations of things, but because I can create a convincing image of something that's not there but might have been." He teaches at the University of Washington; his home studio was once a grocery store.
