Bring the whole family! \nBECOME A MEMBER \n\nABOUT NINA YANKOWITZ \nThroughout a career spanning six decades\, Nina Yankowitz (American\, b. 1946) has created a multidisciplinary practice that defies singular definition. Her work pushes against traditional boundaries: her paintings have resisted not just frames\, but seemingly gravity; her abstract compositions have gone beyond the canvas to embrace the aural. Most recently\, Yankowitz has deepened her interest in technology and new media to create immersive environments that spotlight women-centered histories that have gone unknown for far too long. \nNina Yankowitz was born and raised in New Jersey and lives between New York City and Sag Harbor. Her works are in public collections\, including the Fine Arts Museum of San Francisco\, San Francisco\, CA; Virginia Museum of History & Culture\, Richmond\, VA; and the Smith College Museum of Art\, Northampton\, MA. Her archival materials are found in the Archives of American Art\, Smithsonian Institution\, Washington\, D.C. Her 2022 solo exhibition at Eric Firestone Gallery garnered reviews in Artforum and Art in America\, and in 2024 she was inducted into the New York Foundation for the Arts’ Hall of Fame. \nImages: \nNina Yankowitz\, Ms. Majesty\, 1970-71\, Acrylic compressor spray on canvas run through pleating machine.
