Elizabeth Murray (American, 1940-2007) Considered one of the nation’s most important postmodernist abstract artist, Murray belonged to a generation of artists who emerged in the 1970s exposed to Minimalism and Pop art and were influenced by Cubism, Surrealism and Expressionism. Murray received her B.F.A. from the Art Institute of Chicago in 1962 and her M.F.A. from Mills College in Oakland, California in 1964. Murray’s debut was in New York City at the 1972 Annual Exhibition: Contemporary American Painting at the Whitney Museum of American Art. This lead to nearly sixty solo exhibitions in galleries world-wide throughout her life. She gained attention by using inventive forms and everyday objects and occurrences. Today, Murray’s work can be viewed in the collections of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, the Museum of Modern Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Art Institute of Chicago and the Carnegie Museum of Art.
