About the Exhibition
The Parrish Art Museum presents Nina Yankowitz: In the Out/Out the In, the first retrospective of Nina Yankowitz (American, b. 1946), whose six-decade career has continually expanded the boundaries of painting, sculpture, sound, video, and installation. Yankowitz came to prominence in the 1960s in New York, where she experimented with the material and technical possibilities of canvas, cardboard, paint sprayers, and sewing equipment to create abstract paintings. A founding member of the Heresies Collective (1976–1993), Yankowitz’s early approach to painting was informed by the feminist movement, Process art, and the legacy of Abstract Expressionism. She also participated in the countercultural scenes of Greenwich Village and upstate New York, and her collaborations with the experimental Group 212 Inter-Media Project encouraged her interest in performance and new media. In the following decades, her practice branched out into sculpture, sound and video art, and interactive installations that harness the technology behind social media platforms and video games.
Nina Yankowitz: In the Out/Out the In is organized by the Museum of Fine Arts, St. Petersburg, FL, and is curated by Katherine Pill, Senior Curator of Contemporary Art. The presentation at the Parrish is organized by Corinne Erni, The Lewis B. and Dorothy Cullman Chief Curator of Art and Education, with Scout Hutchinson, The FLAG Art Foundation Associate Curator of Contemporary Art at the Parrish Art Museum.
