CRAIG KRULL – WALKING VENICE
2026-10-19Walking Venice, traces a photographer’s lifelong dialogue with a neighborhood that shaped him. The exhibition brings together images made during daily pandemic walks through Venice, California, where Krull grew up in the early 1970s amid rundown canals and a bohemian counterculture that included some of Los Angeles’s most significant artists.
Krull returned to Venice in the 1980s to live on the beach while building his career in the gallery world, eventually becoming a founding presence at Bergamot Station Arts Center in 1994. His professional path intersected with Julius Shulman, the pre-eminent architectural photographer of California modernism, whose influence sharpened Krull’s eye for line, space, and edge. During the pandemic, Krull began walking Venice without a fixed route, treating the act itself as an art form in the tradition of British land artists Richard Long and Roger Ackling, who elevated walking into conceptual practice.
