Glenn Ligon Biography:
Glenn Ligon was born in 1960 in the Bronx, New York. He attended the Rhode Island School of Design for two years, beginning in 1980, and received a BA from Wesleyan University, Middletown, Connecticut, in 1982. In 1985 he participated in the Whitney Museum of American Art’s independent study program. Combining painting, photography, printmaking, and conceptual practices, Ligon has addressed issues of racial and sexual identity in his work.
He first attracted recognition for his paintings in which black text appears against white backgrounds, such as Untitled (I Feel Most Colored When I Am Thrown against a Sharp White Background) (1990–91). In Notes on the Margin of the Black Book (1991–93), Ligon juxtaposed reproductions of Robert Mapplethorpe’s photographs of black men with texts critiquing the images. His Stranger in the Village paintings (2000) use coal dust to lend a racial signification to seemingly abstract paintings. For his Coloring series (2000), the artist asked children to color pages from Black Power–themed coloring books of the 1970s and then silkscreened the results onto large canvases. Annotations (2003), Ligon’s first web-based project, expands on his earlier works about family photo albums, such as A Feast of Scraps (1994–98). In the later work, pictures resembling those in a family album—group photographs from dinner parties, studio portraits, informal snapshots taken in living rooms—are linked to texts, other images, and audio clips in order to explore the creation of personal and familial histories. In 2005 Ligon began to work with neon to present quotes from historical figures including Sojourner Truth and Gloria Steinem; to interrogate the history of the medium, he covered much of the glass tubes with thick coats of black paint and left only the parts facing the walls exposed, creating a luminous haze behind the inscriptions. Interested in political iconoclasts, Ligon turned his attention to comedian Richard Pryor in Live (2014). A seven-channel projection of clips taken from Richard Pryor: Live on the Sunset Strip (1982), the work focuses on the performer’s commanding and expressive body language. The piece not only celebrates the iconic comedian but also highlights his incisive messages and startlingly direct style of communication.
Ligon has had solo shows at the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Washington, D.C. (1993); Brooklyn Museum, New York (1996); Saint Louis Art Museum (2000); Studio Museum in Harlem, New York (2001); Dia Center for the Arts, New York (2003); Power Plant, Toronto (2005); Whitney Museum of American Art, New York (2011); Camden Arts Centre, London (2014); Baltimore Museum of Art (2017); and the Maria & Alberto De La Cruz Art Gallery, Georgetown University, Washington D.C. (2019); among other venues. He has participated in such recurring exhibitions as the Whitney Biennial (1991, 1993), Venice Biennale (1997 and 2015), and Documenta, Kassel, Germany (2002). He has received awards and grants from the National Endowment for the Arts (1982, 1989, and 1991) and Art Matters (1990), as well as the Skowhegan Medal for Painting (2006), United States Artists Fellowship (2010), International Association of Art Critics Award (2012), and Annual Medal Award from the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston (2013). He lives and works in New York.
