Artist Bio
Elizabeth Clark Libert creates photo-based projects that examine themes both autobiographical and psychoanalytical in nature. Focused on subjects close to home, Libert reconsiders stages of life through a variety of visual and contextual approaches. The artwork is vulnerable, revealing introspective and extrospective observations of relationships and cultural influences from her immediate world.
Libert received a BA in Fine Art from Amherst College and an MFA in Photography, Video, and Related Media from the School of Visual Arts. Images from her MFA thesis received the Photo District News Student Award and the Magenta Foundation Emerging Artist Award. Since then, her artwork has been exhibited nationally at museums, galleries, and non-profit institutions, and is held in both private and public collections, including the JPMorgan Chase Art Collection and the Fort Wayne Museum of Art. Print and online publications that have featured Libert’s work include T: The New York Times Style Magazine, The New Yorker Photo Booth, Mockingbird, and Lenscratch. Her first monograph, Boy Crazy, was published 2023 by Workshop Arts, and is currently shortlisted for the Rencontres d'Arles Book Awards.
Libert serves on the boards of the Griffin Museum of Photography and several local philanthropic committees in the Boston area, where she lives with her family.
