Biography
Angie Jennings (b. 1984) centers painting and drawing in conversation with modes of performance, video and sculpture. She investigates perception through strategies of surrealism and abstraction with an emphasis on identity, oppression, and erasure. Formations of new mythologies linked to agency and mysticism are frequently employed.
Jennings grew up in southern Minnesota and earned her Bachelor of Science in Art Education from South Dakota State University and a Master of Fine Arts in Visual Art from the University of California San Diego. Her works have been exhibited at Anthology Film Archives, New York, NY, the Miller Institute of Contemporary Art at Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, PA, Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego, San Diego, CA, the Erie Art Museum, Erie, PA, Lehman College, Bronx, NY, Wignall Museum of Contemporary Art, Rancho Cucamonga, CA, Coaxial Art Foundation, Los Angeles, CA, Human Resources, Los Angeles, CA, Abode Gallery, Los Angeles, CA, Franconia Sculpture Park, Shafer, MN and the Museum of Contemporary Art Tucson, Tucson, AZ, among others.
