Alex Prager’s imagery draws viewers in because it is alluring and nostalgic but also slightly foreboding. Prager is a photographer and filmmaker living and working in Los Angeles. She focuses on the surrealist, cinematic nature of our everyday lives. With meticulously staged environments, Prager invites the viewer to see their lives as sprawling, familiar moments, a Hollywood of the self.

Prager’s work is present in major international collections, including the Museum of Modern Art, New York; the Whitney Museum of Art, New York; the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, San Francisco; the North Carolina Museum of Art, Raleigh; the National Gallery of Victoria, Australia; and many others.

Crystallized Gold
Eagle’s Nest Mine (Mystery Wind Mine)
Sage Hill, Michigan Bluff Mining District (Michigan Bluff Mining deposit)
Placer Co., California, USA

From the world-renowned Eagle’s Nest Mine in California, this truly spectacular example of a crystallized Gold on Quartz is a superb specimen and one ideal representation of the coveted Placer County material which is so prized among collectors. This leafy and striking specimen offers two sides which could easily be the primary display face, and this finer Gold is highly dimensional, unusually solid and extremely brilliant for the variety. The museum specimen once belonged in the collection of Hubert Charles de Monmonier and is presented on a custom engraved acrylic base. This is simply an exquisite crystallized Gold over two naturally artistic faces with incredible provenance, collector aesthetics and truly stunning, visual appeal.
