Book Launch - "Could it be Love:" Greer Lankton
Mattress Factory is proud to host the book launch of "Could it be Love," the first monograph on the groundbreaking trans artist Greer Lankton (1958–1996). Known for her beautifully unsettling dolls and immersive installations, Lankton is revealed in this new volume as an extraordinary photographer with a singular eye. Lankton’s wit, compassion, and sense of spectacle brought to life through carefully staged photographs of her handmade figures.
Edited by Nan Goldin, Francis Schichtel, and Jordan Weitzman, the book draws deeply from the Greer Lankton Archive, housed at Mattress Factory, to present over 100 of Lankton’s rarely seen photographs. These images offer an intimate and theatrical glimpse into Lankton’s inner world, one populated by glamorous oddballs, downtown legends, and avatars of her own making.
Join us for an evening of conversation with the editors as they reflect on Greer’s life, her artistic process, and the making of "Could it be Love," followed by a rare screening of Lankton’s films.
Each ticket includes a copy of "Could it be Love."
Tickets are $40 for Mattress Factory members and $50 for non-members.
Limited tickets are available. A maximum of four tickets may be purchased per individual.
