Liza Lou is an American visual artist best known for producing large scale sculpture using glass beads.
Lou came to prominence with the 168-square-foot (15.6 m2) work Kitchen (1991-1996), a to-scale and fully equipped replica of a kitchen covered in beads. The work took five years to complete and was followed with Back Yard (1996-1999), for which Lou enlisted the help of volunteers to recreate grass in a 525-square-foot (48.8 m2) model of a backyard.Kitchen is in the permanent collection of the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York,and Back Yard is in the permanent collection of the Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain, Paris. In 2005, Lou moved from Los Angeles to Durban, South Africa. In Durban, she created many sculptures and paintings with the help of 50 South African beadworkers.
