By Amy Hill

Located in Chicago, IL

My paintings are updates of works from earlier eras. I choose these eras because of my stylistic kinship with their artists, which allows me to carry on a kind of dialogue with them. Each era brings up a particular theme that I translate to the present day. Using portraiture I choose poses, gestures and fashion to make social, psychological and anthropological statements. Humor emerges through the juxtaposition of modern day fashion with classic poses and compositions. In addressing Renaissance works, because many of the figures from this era are depicted in poses of prayer or worship, I paint my subjects worshipping secular things such as designer labels and digital devices. - Amy Hill Amy Hill Two Women Gesturing oil on canvas 42h x 32w in 106.68h x 81.28w cm AHL001 AMY HILL Education 1977 New York University, New York, NY 1976 Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, PA BFA Solo Exhibitions 2018 Front Room Gallery, New York, NY “Back to Nature” 2017 Pulse Art Fair, Miami, FL with Front Room Gallery 2016 Lois Lambert Gallery, Santa Monica, CA 2016 Front Room Gallery, Brooklyn, NY "Young and Innocent” 2013 Front Room Gallery, Brooklyn, NY “The Age of Delightenment” 2010 Andre Zarre Gallery, New York, NY 2009 Andre Zarre Gallery, New York, NY 2008 McCaig Welles Gallery, Brooklyn, NY 2007 Ann Nathan Gallery, Chicago, IL 2005 Jack the Pelican Gallery, Brooklyn, NY 2004 Roq La Rue Gallery, Seattle, WA 2003 Saville Gallery, Cumberland, MD 2001 Clementine Gallery, New York, NY 1996 Curcio Spector Gallery, New York, NY 1995 University of California, Berkeley, San Francisco, CA 1994 Sunnen Gallery, New York, NY 1991 Queens Museum at the Bullova Center, Queens, NY 1991 Tegenbosch Gallery, Amsterdam, Holland Selected Group Exhibitions 2018 Elizabeth Foundation, New York, NY. “American Psyche” 2018 One Art Space, New York, NY “Untitled” 2018 Philip Slein Gallery, St. Louis “People, Places, Things” 2017 New York Art Lab 2017, Osaka, Japan 2107 490 Atlantic, Brooklyn, NY “American Pie” 2016 The Parlour Bushwick, Brooklyn, NY 2015 Booth Gallery, New York, NY 2014 Porter Contemporary, New York, NY 2014 St. Paul’s Church, New York, NY 2014 Andre Zarre Gallery, New York, NY 2014 Front Room Gallery, New York, NY 2011 Ann Nathan Gallery, Chicago, Ill 2011 MA Doran Gallery, Tulsa, OK 2009 Denise Bibro, New York, NY 2008 Bernarducci Meisel Gallery, New York, NY 2008 Nohra Haime Gallery, New York, NY “Peopled People” 2007 Ann Nathan Gallery, Chicago, IL 2007 Woodstock Byrdcliffe Guild, Woodstock, NY 2007 Like the Spice, Brooklyn, NY 2006 McCaig Welles, Brooklyn, NY 2006 Magaret Bodell Gallery, Cornwall, CN 2006 NYU Small Works Show, New York, NY 2005 Ambrosino Gallery, N Miami, FL “Gods and Monsters” 2005 Fe Gallery, Pittsburgh, Pa “Fear” 2004 B-Side Gallery, New York, NY 2004 MF Gallery NewYork, NY “Freak Show” 2004 Krasdale Foods Art Gallery, White Plains, NY 2002 NYU, New York, NY “Small Works"2001 Mark Moore Gallery, Santa Monica, Ca. 2001 Castle Gallery, New Rochelle, NY “Bogus” 2000 Upstate Art, Phoenicia, NY “Nature Made” 2000 Nexus Contemporary Center, Atlanta, Ga. “Rememberance of Things Past” 1999 DFN Gallery, New York, NY 1999 HBO Offices, New York, NY 1998 Battersea Art Center, London, UK ‘Sickly Sweet’ 1996 Barbara Moran Fine Arts, Egermont, Mass. 1994 The New Museum, New York, NY ‘Bad Girls’ 1993 Art in General, New York, NY ‘Good and Plenty...

She delicately holds a tambourine and gazes wistfully into the distance. Amy Hill’s artistic career and developed style have been cultivated through her intense investigations of art historical references. Through portraiture, she relates common circumstances within cross relationships in time. The paintings in “Back to Nature” address not only the culture of the 1960’s, but the fashion and political climate, the anxiety over the Vietnam War and the peace movement. Through comparative structures and subjects, Hill has masterfully relayed a parallel association of 19th century American folk art painting...
