Carrie Mae Weems Art

American, b. 1953

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.
