In this talk:

🚩 Amy Sillman —— Amy Sillman has lived and worked in NYC since the mid-1970s. She is best known for her rigorous formal engagement with painting and iterative drawings, and an excavation of form that lies between abstraction and figuration. Over the decades of her practice, Sillman has developed a rich, open-ended exploration of how painting might work in relation to diverse media and, in particular, questions of time and sequence. She has experimented with embedding painting with such forms as animations, digital printmaking, large-scale drawing installations, and zines. Sillman’s work has been exhibited widely in the USA and Europe, and her works are in many private and public collections. Her collection of art writing, Faux Pas, is in its third reprint since its initial publication in 2020.
