Ginny Lloyd (American, active 1980s)
Art in Space Launch #1 1984
This framed black-and-white photograph documents “Art in Space Launch #1” (1984), an early and historically significant intersection of contemporary art and space exploration. The image shows a figure in a protective suit standing beside equipment at what appears to be a launch or test site, reinforcing the experimental and performative nature of the project.
The reverse label identifies the work as part of Ginny Lloyd’s Art in Space series, with photo credit to Steve Caravello. Lloyd was a key figure in conceptual and performance-based projects involving aerospace themes during the early 1980s, collaborating with artists, engineers, and photographers to explore the boundaries between art, technology, and space travel.
This piece represents an era when artists actively engaged with NASA-adjacent ideas, experimental launches, and documentation-based art practices.
