#BROOKLYNBRED BAM Fisher 2014 NEXT WAVE FESTIVAL About the Show

MARTHA WILSON Curator, Performer (A Forum for Performance Art, Oct 16)

Martha Wilson is a pioneering feminist artist and gallery director who over the past four decades has created innovative photographic and video works that explore her female subjectivity. She has been described by Times critic Holland Cotter as one of “the half-dozen most important people for art in downtown in the 1970s.” In 1976 she founded Franklin Furnace, an artist-run space that champions the exploration, promotion, and preservation of artist books, temporary installation, performance art, as well as online works. She is represented by P.P.O.W Gallery in New York and has received fellowships for performance art from the National Endowment for the Arts and the New York Foundation for the Arts, Bessie and Obie awards for commitment to artists’ freedom of expression, a Lennon Courage Award for the Arts, a Richard Massey Foundation-White Box Arts and Humanities Award, and in 2013 received an Honorary Doctor of Fine Arts degree from the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design University.
