About the Item

Allison Gildersleeve received her BA from the College of William and Mary and her MFA from Bard College. She has exhibited across the United States and abroad, including New York City, Denver, Charleston, Oakland, and Stockholm. Gildersleeve has received numerous fellowships and residencies, most notably The Sharpe-Walentas Studio Program, New York Foundation for the Arts in Painting, Yaddo, The Millay Colony, Vermont Studio Center, and Liquitex International Research Residency in London. Valley House Gallery presented our third solo exhibition of her paintings in 2021. About her recent work, Allison Gildersleeve writes: "Like the stagehands that dress the set between acts in a play, I employ layered, saturated colors, flattened textures, and chaotic brushwork in service of painted worlds that set the stage for action. These scenes of disjointed interiors and chaotic landscapes are devoid of actors, but the detritus left in the wake of their presence compresses generations of interstitial moments from past and present, all cast in the shadow of the town my family has inhabited since the early 1900s. When the pandemic exploded in New York City, my husband, children, and I returned to this town. In these months of quiet, as I’ve walked the cobweb of streets through neighborhoods I’ve memorized since childhood, I’ve felt the parallel presence of the daily lives, dramatic or mundane, that existed here before my time. While my paintings were once confined to my own personal timeline, now the imagined histories of other lives that date back centuries have seeped into my work."
