About

Why this artist matters now

Marilyn Minter creates large-scale photorealist paintings and photographs that collapse distinctions between commercial imagery and fine art through intimate, sensual representation. Her work interrogates the visual language of advertising and consumer culture, rendered with meticulous technique. She teaches in the MFA program at the School of Visual Arts in New York and is represented by Lehmann Maupin.
