Blanche Gallery - Bibette
The gallery’s living legend. Sokoloff began showing at Bibette Blanche in 1982. Her work is less aggressive than Ridgeway’s but infinitely more melancholic. She is famous for her "Linen Series"—massive canvases where she scrapes away the paint while it is wet, then soaks the canvas in turpentine, leaving behind a ghostly residue of the original image. These are paintings about memory and erasure. A Sokoloff exhibition at the Bibette Blanche Gallery usually sells out within hours of the private viewing.
Her masterpiece, The Boiler Room Suite (permanently housed at the gallery), is a 20-foot-long panorama of soot, rust, and fury. Ridgeway painted it using melted tar and a mop. Standing in front of it, you don't feel like you are looking at art; you feel like you are looking at the inside of a furnace. bibette blanche gallery
