Amy Wilson Art

American, b. 1973
Amy Wilson received her BFA from the School of Visual Arts, New York, in 1995 and her MFA from Yale University in 1997. Her drawings explore the tensions between her inner life and the exterior world, incorporating personal stories and observations along with commentary about current events both personal and newsworthy. Her small-scale watercolor drawings, etchings, and books feature tiny, hand-written texts and an ever-changing cast of talkative girls. Wilson has had solo shows at BravinLee Programs, Bellwether Gallery, MoMA-PS1, and The Drawing Center, and has participated in group exhibitions at PS1/MOMA, The Drawing Center, Josee Bienvenue Gallery, and the Grolier Club (all in New York) and the Pera Museum (Istanbul). She teaches drawing and art history at the School of Visual Arts, New York.

What Happens To Us When We Die
By Amy Wilson
Located in Red Bank, NJ
I am a multi-disciplinary artist who has professionally shown my work in dozens of galleries and museums since the late 1990s. But while my work can take many different forms, my practice is rooted in drawing. Whether I am working on the watercolor and acrylic pieces, or fiber-based pieces, every project and every idea begins with a drawing. Through that process I lay out my ideas, ask myself questions, experiment with different options, and try to resolve all the formal and conceptual issues I will attempt in my final piece. The themes I have explored in my work from 1999 on, and even before then, have remained the same even though my style has shifted radically. I have been interested in exploring self-portraiture, personal narratives, femininity, politics, and the use of text in art. I have remained constant in my exploration of critical theory and art history, and drawn influence from artists as diverse as Joseph Beuys, Henry Darger, and Adrian Piper...

H.O. Miethke Das Werk folio "Judith I" collotype print
By Gustav Klimt K.K. Hof-und Staatsdruckerei
Located in Palm Beach, FL
Judith I, no. 9 from the second installment of Das Werk Gustav Klimts Much like his treatment of the Classical personage, Danae, from Greek mythology, Klimt’s depiction of Judith takes an Old Testament character, a heroine who avenges the death of her husband by killing an Assyrian king, and firmly positions her in his present-day Vienna. His multicolored collotype rips the canvas from its gilded frame which directly references the subject with its title: “Judith und Holofernes”. Now in print form, Judith, holding the severed head of a male in murky shadow, is the ultimate Viennese femme fatale. Her likeness is unmistakably similar to a former lover of Klimt’s and famous Viennese soprano, Anna von Mildenburg. Though his allusion to ancient Assyria is apt, Klimt literally lifted the gold patterned background’s design motif from a relief detail from Sennacherib’s Palace displayed in a London museum. His context then is contemporary. In a sensual and sexually powerful tour de force, Klimt’s Judith...
