Untitled

Amy Sillman (born 1955, Detroit) is a New York-based artist whose work has redefined contemporary painting through her continuously evolving practice in painting, drawing, installation, zines and video. In self-isolation over the past few months, Sillman has begun her days painting flowers in gouache, ink and pencil, an intimate insight into her investigative attention to color and shape. Sillman’s work has been the subject of numerous solo exhibitions at institutions including the Arts Club of Chicago; Camden Arts Centre, London; Drawing Center, New York; Portikus, Frankfurt am Main, Germany; Kunsthaus Bregenz, Austria; Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Washington, D.C.; and the Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston. Her works are held in the public collections of the Art Institute of Chicago; Brooklyn Museum, New York; Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; Museum of Modern Art, New York; National Gallery of Art, Washington D.C.; and the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York. This work is offered as an extension of her upcoming exhibition at Gladstone Gallery, New York.
