March 5 - 8, 2020
Anna Plesset (b. 1977, Mt. Kisco, NY) is an interdisciplinary artist who uses painting, sculpture, and drawing to reframe familiar historical narratives and examine how history, memory, and knowl- edge are constructed and mediated. Recently, her work was featured in New York in group exhibi- tions at Jack Barrett, the Shirley Fiterman Art Center at BMCC, and JDJ | The Ice House; and in solo exhibitions at PATRON in Chicago, Hunter Harrison Gallery in London, and The Armory Show 2020 with Jack Barrett in New York. In 2016, Plesset was awarded the Joan Mitchell Foundation Emerging Artist Grant. Additional awards and residencies include the Terra Foundation for American Art Summer Residency Fellowship in Giverny, France and the AIRspace residency program at Abrons Arts Center in New York City. Plesset’s work has been written about and reviewed in The New York Times, Artforum, T Magazine, Hyperallergic, frieze, ARTnews, Cultured, Bomb Magazine, Modern Painters, Time Out, and The Brooklyn Rail. She lives and works in Brooklyn, New York.
