Baum Foundation Award Winner Debuts New Art Show


Since 2003, Glenn Bucksbaum has served as president of The Baum Foundation in San Francisco. Under the leadership of Glenn Bucksbaum, The Baum Foundation supports a variety of programs in the areas of art, education, and the environment.

In the summer of 2017, a Baum Award winner premiered her latest art project. Lisa Kereszi presented “Joe’s Junk Yard” at the Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit. 

The project touched on a number of timely and locally relevant topics, including the evolving economy of the automotive industry and the elusive, nebulous concept of the American Dream. Ms. Kereszi based the project on her own family, particularly the professional triumphs and personal setbacks of her grandfather.

Ms. Kereszi studied photography at the Yale School of Art. She has had her work displayed in numerous public and private shows and has received several honors and awards, including the 2005 Baum Award for an Emerging American Photographer.
