Carrie Mae Weems
Carrie Mae Weems is widely recognized for her revolutionary approach to the expression of narratives about women, people of color and working-class communities. With a complex body of work encompassing photography, text, fabric, audio, digital image, installation, performance and video, Weems asks us to look deeply at the two-dimensional image, to explore complex realities and revisit unexamined perspectives.
Weems has participated in numerous exhibitions at major museums, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Frist Center for Visual Art, the Solomon Guggenheim Museum in New York, the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles, and the Centro Andaluz de Arte Contemporáneo in Seville, Spain.
Weems has also received numerous awards, including the MacArthur “Genius“ Fellowship, the Rome Prize, the U.S. Department of State Inaugural Medal of Arts, BET Honors Visual Artist Award, and W.E.B. Du Bois Medal from Harvard University. She is represented in public and private collections around the world, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, NY; the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston; the Museum of Modern Art, NY; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; MOCA, Los Angeles; the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; Los Angeles County Museum of Art; and Tate Modern, London. Weems resides in Syracuse and Brooklyn, New York.

- Within Reach - unique black-and-white contemporary landscape abstract photographBy Kimberly Schneider PhotographyLocated in New York, NY"Within Reach" - Unique silver gelatin print (mixed process photogram); Made with ice, flowers, sand, glitter, and more. BRAND NEW, printed on Fomatone MG 133, a beautiful, slightly textured chamois paper, in April 2023. [This one-of-a-kind black-and-white photograph is a slightly weird size, as it was made with a sheet of paper that had previously been cut for a test strip. The width is actually 8 1/16"] After falling into photography by way of eastern religions a lifetime ago, the latter quickly found its way into my work, and never left.
