Artist Introduction

Allison Zuckerman subverts art historical depictions of women in her exuberant large-scale canvases, which are rife with painterly and pop cultural references. The artist applies acrylic paint over digital collages that unite disparate iconography pulled from Old Masters, Roy Lichtenstein, Disney cartoons, pixelated computer screens, contemporary celebrity culture, and more. Zuckerman, who holds an MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, was named artist in residence at the Rubell Museum in Miami in 2017. Her work has since been exhibited in New York, Miami, London, and Brussels. Zuckerman has also designed handbags for Tods, album art for Charli XCX, and a studio collaboration with Moschino.
