Colette
Metaphysical Portrait from series: Artists and the Silver Screen

About the Item

"Colette is a gauze-draped pillar of the New York art world, a maker of installations, a painter and a performance artist.” - Anthony Hayden-Guest for The Art Newspaper Undercurrent Projects (formerly Peanut Underground) is excited to announce our premier exhibition, an installation of new works by the artist Colette. Beginning her career as a painter, Colette is internationally acclaimed for her pioneering work in street art, performance art, tableaux vivants and the constructed photograph, which brought her avant-garde work to the public eye in the 1970s and was influential to generations of artists to follow. Often addressing issues of gender roles, her contributions have been recycled in pop culture; yet, she continues to reinvent herself. Colette’s work has been exhibited in MoMA, Whitney, the Guggenheim, New Museum, MoMA PS1, Palais de Tokyo, MoCA, Houston Museum of Contemporary Art, Musée d’Art Moderne Montreal, the Ludwig Museum (Cologne), and others. Colette has long been recognized for creating, adopting and fully inhabiting various personas, with her current “muse” being Lumière.
