I saw Verburg’s work at the Walker. Hundred’s of people lined up to see Frida, but Verburg was the underrated star, I thought. She has an eye for composition and excellent technique, so she’s able to make interesting pictures out of banal subject matter. I appreciate this skill since it’s a hopeful message.

Just came across JoAnn Verburg’s photographs on display at MOMA…have not been acquainted with her work…was also intriqued by the similarity of our names and wondered if there were a way to email her or write her???

I work as the lead art preparator at the Microsoft Art Collection, and she is one of the most popular artists in the collection, the employees just love the works of hers we have here in Redmond. I’m glad to see you posting something about her, she really is a fantastic artist! Her work makes my job so satisfying!

Alec, this series on underrated photographers in wonderful. I always loved Mertin’s work, and am very glad to see your post on Verburg, and especially happy to see that she has a retro coming up! I’ve already forwarded the post to my senior seminar class. Of the 23 students in the class, 16 are female and in need of successful role models. JoAnn is certainly a good one.
