Airports, bridges, corridors, architectural models, icebergs--Carla Klein paints non-places. She makes quick work of the border between painting and photography, straddling the worlds of fiction and reality, illusion and transparency, abstraction and representation. Carla Klein documents five years of the artist's work, from 2000 forward.
