Bio Karen Kozlow
Karen Kozlow was a painter , sculptor and ceramicist from San Diego.
She was a mainstay in the modern art era of the 1960s
after being a student at the Art Center she met Louis m. Sander, who she later married and both were active in the modern art scene of San Diego in the 60s.
then they moved to Pacific Beach and both made films, staged poetry readings and held a variety of exhibitions.
The most publicized of these was an unusual 1965 exhibition of nine artist's work displayed in model units at the new Loma Riviera townhouse development, called “New Art in Living Space.” John Baldessari, Richard Allen Morris, Karen Kozlow, and Cliff McReynolds were among the featured artists.
When Kozlow won an award at the Third Art Center Annual of California Painting and Sculpture for her painting “Cradled Light,” Lou Sander accepted it on behalf of his gallery. She “was the first woman artist given an award” in the prestigious series of annuals.
Later, Kozlow and Sander founded an artist’s retreat/commune east of Alpine where late-60’s art happenings met transcendental meditation. Sander had become an ordained minister of the Universal Life Church and their remote, five-acre Ulife Institute was described by artist Bob Matheny in a 1968 report as both an "informal artist's cooperative" and a "non-sectarian church" set amongst "good oaks, clean air and handsome rock formations." Kozlow and Sander’s marriage was also a bit rocky, and shortly after their divorce, the Pine Valley Fire of 1970 swept over the property, consuming all of Kozlow's paintings.
Kozlow's art has been shown at the Oceanside Museum of Art (OMA).
