Randi Malkin Steinberger – Biography

A Chicago native, Randi moved to Italy where she lived for 10 years upon graduating university. In Florence she launched a photography school and gallery and worked as a fine art photographer, later producing artists’ books that are now part of many permanent collections including MoMA, The Whitney Museum, NY, The Art Institute of Chicago and The MCA, Chicago. During her stay in Italy she collaborated with Alighiero Boetti, together producing the book, Accanto al Pantheon, published by Prearo Editions in Milan. Their second collaboration brought her to the Afghan refugee camp outside Peshawar, Pakistan where she documented the women as they embroidered Boetti’s work. In 2011 RAM Publications published a book of these photographs, entitled, Boetti by Afghan People: Peshawar, Pakiston, 1990. In February 2012, The Fowler Museum at UCLA hosted an exhibit of Boetti’s embroidered works, Malkin Steinberger’s photographs and traditional Afghan handiwork. In 2010, a suite of these images was shown at Gladstone Gallery in New York as part of the exhibition Alighiero e Boetti: Mappe. Since moving to Los Angeles in 1992 Randi has worked on many projects including her documentary film, Holi-days that aired on television worldwide.
