Distinguished Visiting Artist
Liz Glynn, Artist
Liz Glynn employs objects and actions to consider the ambition of empire, the pleasure of ruin, and the possibility of a new way forward. Her practice seeks to embody dynamic cycles of growth and decay by creating works which evidence process, encourage participation, and incite future action. Her work has been exhibited across the United States at venues including at LACMA, MOCA/Los Angeles, Armand Hammer Museum, LACE, Machine Project, Acuna-Hansen Gallery, the REDCAT Lounge, Paula Cooper Gallery, John Connolly Presents, and the New Museum in New York City. Reviews of Glynn’s work have appeared in the Los Angeles Times and Art Lies, among others. She has attended residencies at O'Artoteca in Milan, the Atlantic Center for the Arts, and Vermont Studio Center. Glynn received her MFA from California Institute of the Arts, and her BA from Harvard College. She is the recipient of a Fellowship for Visual Artists from The California Community Foundation.
