ANDERSON CONTEMPORARY
SUZANNE UNREIN
Characterized by the fervent energy of gestural mark-making and wide swaths of vibrant colors, these paintings are lyrical forms of a wilder existence. Joy and sensuality are expressed with a contemporary working of paint to create complex, emotional compositions by way of the subconscious rather than analytical mind.
Unrein is a 2023 grant recipient of the FST StudioProjects Fund, New York, NY and a 2023-2024 recipient of the studio program residency at Painting Space 122, New York, NY.

Her residencies and fellowships include the Studio Program at P.S. 122 in the East Village, the Jentel Foundation in Banner, WY, and the Can Serrat residency in Le Bruc, Barcelona, Spain.
