Mirrors • This section highlights Minter’s early investigations of the world around her—the domestic environment, the artist’s studio, printed mass media. • This section includes her earliest photographic works made 1969 as well as her explorations of photorealism and pop art from the 1980s. • During this period Minter starts to use appropriated images and investigates themes of beauty and the female body that become the central topics of her work for years to come. Coral Ridge Towers (Mom Smoking Extra Long) 1969/1995 Black and white photograph 30 x 40 inches Courtesy of the artist and Regen Projects, Los Angeles Marilyn Minter: Pretty/Dirty Big Girls, 1986 Enamel on canvas 80 x 90 inches (two panels) Collection of Bill Contente, New York Marilyn Minter: Pretty/Dirty Appetites • Looks at the visual representation of food and sex sourced from both cooking and pornographic magazines in order to address our culture’s obsession with visual pleasure and desire • She uses paint to draw out similarities between raw food and bodily fluids. • While the food imagery was well received, her pornographic imagery was considered too risqué for a female painter and faced a firestorm of criticism. • The controversy centered on feminist debates surrounding the exploitation of the female body in pornography versus pleasure and physical arousal produced by sexually graphic imagery made by artists. • As a woman artist making this work, her work is made from a position of criticality, a move to take control of this kind of imagery and make a statement about power and equality. Appetites Series 100 Food Porn, 1989-90 Enamel on Metal 24 x 30 in each Courtesy of Artist , Salon 94, Steve Miller, Hort Family, Johanne C. Miller, Chapel Hill, Sally and John Bugg Marilyn Minter: Pretty/Dirty Rouge Baiser 1994 Enamel on metal 48 x 48 in Courtesy of the artist and Salon 94, New York Marilyn Minter: Pretty/Dirty Raw • Following her work with pornographic imagery Minter turned a critical eye towards blemishes, imperfection and grime through isolated body parts. • In this section Minter re-engages with photography as well as painting. This shift landed her several commissions from the fashion industry and gave her new material to further explore representations of beauty, glamour, wealth and the desire for perfection. • In fashion photography imperfection –dirt, stubble, pimples, freckles, sweat—are digitally corrected, however Minter takes them as her subject. Soiled, 2000 C-Print 60 x 40 inches Courtesy the artist, Salon 94, New York, and Regen Projects, Los Angeles Marilyn Minter: Pretty/Dirty Clip, 2005 Enamel on Metal 30 x 24 in Collection of Gregory R. Miller and Michael Weiner, New York Marilyn Minter: Pretty/Dirty Blue Poles, 2007 Enamel on Metal 60 x 72 in Private Collection, Switzerland Marilyn Minter: Pretty/Dirty Wet • This section of the exhibition includes video and photographs as well as paintings that all depict licking, dripping and devouring mouths. • Minter is drawing from artificial super sweet references to candy and soda--orange Crush and Pop Rocks– to draw out the grotesque side of decadence and indulgence. The images are mesmerizing and repulsive at the same time. • The focus on the mouth as site of consumption is Minter’s way of commenting on our seemingly insatiable desire for wealth and glamour. Orange Crush, 2009 Enamel on Metal, 108 x 180 in Private Collection Marilyn Minter: Pretty/Dirty Gasp, 2004 C-print 26 ¼ x 39 ¾ in Collection of Anita Sayed, Denver Marilyn Minter: Pretty/Dirty Black Orchid, 2012 C-print 86 x 57 in Courtesy of artist, Salon 94, New York, and Regen Projects, Los Angeles Marilyn Minter: Pretty/Dirty Pop Rocks, 2009 Enamel on Metal, 108 x 180 in Collection of Danielle and David Ganek Marilyn Minter: Pretty/Dirty Wangechi Gold 4, 2009 C-print 60 x 40 inches Courtesy the artist, Salon 94, New York, and Regen Projects, Los Angeles Marilyn Minter: Pretty/Dirty Glazed • This section of the show includes several larger works that appear as though seen through glass and layers of graffiti and steam. • To make these works Minter uses Photoshop to layer multiple images into a composition that she then translates to the two dimensional surface of the picture plane. She uses source images made of of many different photographic details compiled together as a guide for the paintings. • Minter’s paintings take a long time to make and they are made by her along with multiple assistants. • The final layer involves applying enamel paint with a single finger tip. Marilyn Minter: Pretty/Dirty Glazed, 2006 Enamel on metal 96 x 60 in Collection of Jeanne Greenberg Rohatyn and Nicolas Rohatyn, New York Marilyn Minter: Pretty/Dirty Private Eye, 2013 Enamel on Metal 120 x 72 in Courtesy of artist and Regen Projects, Los Angeles Marilyn Minter: Pretty/Dirty Not in These Shoes, 2013 Enamel on Metal 108 x 162 in Courtesy of artist and Regen Projects, Los Angeles Marilyn Minter: Pretty/Dirty Still from Smash, 2014 HD digital video, 7:55 min, Courtesy of the artist, Salon 94, New York, and Regen Projects, Los Angeles Marilyn Minter: Pretty/Dirty Key Points • This retrospective covers over three decades of her very productive career, demonstrating the range of work she has produced in different developmental stages. • Minter always had a keen ability to reproduce imagery, much of her work comes back to that skill. • Most importantly she is interested in metaphor and paradox. • Minter uses imagery from fashion and popular culture to address our culture’s relationship to media and celebrity culture as it is tied to obsessions with unrealistic ideals of beauty, wealth and power-- what she has called the “pathology of glamour.” • Marilyn Minter’s work often include sexuality and erotic imagery as a means of critiquing contemporary culture. She is particularly interested in critiquing the ways in which women’s sexuality is portrayed in the media and believes that women are entitled to sexual pleasure.

  • Oral History Interview with Marilyn Minter, 2011 Nov 29-30
    Oral history interview with Marilyn Minter, 2011 Nov 29-30 Contact Information Reference Department Archives of American Art Smithsonian Institution Washington. D.C. 20560 www.aaa.si.edu/askus Transcript Preface The following oral history transcript is the result of a recorded interview with Marilyn Minter on November 29, 2011. The interview took place in the artist's studio in New York City, and was conducted by Judith Richards for the Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution. This interview is part of the Archives of American Art Oral History Program. Marilyn Minter reviewed the transcript in 2015. Her corrections and emendations appear below in brackets with initials. This transcript has been lightly edited for readability by the Archives of American Art. The reader should bear in mind that they are reading a transcript of spoken, rather than written, prose. Interview JUDITH RICHARDS: This is Judith Richards interviewing Marilyn Minter in her studio in New York City on November 29th, 2011, for the Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution, disc one. Marilyn, I'd like to start with asking you about your family background, as far back as you want to go, certainly to grandparents, and especially noting those who you knew personally and talk about their names and their occupations and then your parents, and then we'll go to you. MARILYN MINTER: Well, that's a big mystery. I met my grandmother on my father's side, but he was such a scoundrel, they all just disinherited him. He was from a moneyed background in Virginia. JUDITH RICHARDS: Do you know the grandparents’ names? MARILYN MINTER: Hortense Minter—she was German.

  • Michele C Quinn Fine Art Advisory
    Media Contact: Lori Goodwine, GoodPRNOW 702.502.3108 Marilyn Minter Showcase to Kickoff Summer Season Exhibitions At CENTERpiece Gallery (Las Vegas, NV) – Michele C. Quinn Fine Art (MCQFine Art) and CENTERpiece Gallery is pleased to present an exhibition of works by renowned contemporary artist, Marilyn Minter. The exhibition, which is currently on display, will run through Tuesday, August 31, 2010. Examining the relationships between the body, photography, and painting, Marilyn Minter work taps into cultural anxieties about sexuality and desire. Using luscious colors, glossy surfaces and hyper-realistic close- ups, her work is both seductive and disturbing. Makeup-laden lips, eyes, mouths, necks, and feet are portrayed with an enticing but alarming veracity that examines beauty and decadence while exposing the pleasures and dangers of glamour. Art, Minter has said, is meant to reveal the distance between representations of glamour in popular culture and the realities of the flesh. The CENTERpiece Galley exhibition focuses on a selection of Minter’s works featuring large-scale Chromogenic prints. (Photo: Swarv, 2005, by Marilyn Minter) Minter’s video debut, Green Pink Caviar made its first U.S. museum appearance as part of Minter’s solo show at Contemporary Arts Center in Cincinnati, Ohio; the video that has gained fame playing on the MTV HD Billboard in Times Square and, most recently, accompanying pop icon Madonna on her current European tour. (Video Still: from Green Pink Caviar, 2009, by Marilyn Minter) Born in 1948 in Shreveport, Louisiana, Marilyn Minter lives and works in New York City. In 1970, she received a bachelor's degree in fine art from the University of Florida and in 1972 a master degree in fine art from Syracuse University.

  • Artist and Floridian Marilyn Minter Opens up Sarah Gerard September 7, 2019
    Marilyn On Top: Artist and Floridian Marilyn Minter Opens Up Sarah Gerard September 7, 2019 The famed artist and activist on growing up in the Sunshine State, sexual agency and sunlight as disinfectant. No sooner am I allowed inside Marilyn Minter’s Manhattan studio than she remarks on my freckles, saying, “No wonder you like my work.” The artist is known for making visible what is typically airbrushed: sweat, pimples, body hair—or what is often thought private: addiction, sex. She’s also renowned for honoring what’s regarded by patriarchal standards as unimportant: housework, fashion, glamour. Freckles are a favorite subject. As sunlight draws melanin to the skin’s surface (skin and surfaces are Minter’s fascinations), so are disgust and desire brought to the forefront and made to commingle in Minter’s work, which for the last five decades has broken down cultural barriers for women by querying society’s contradictory attitudes toward the feminine body. Clad in all black, with black-rimmed glasses and icy-blue eyes, Minter is warm, if slightly distracted, as she leads me into her spacious second-floor workroom. Behind her, facing the white walls, assistants are making final Minter in her New York City studio; Photography by Nadya Wasylko strokes with their fingers on three paintings going to Art Basel—Minter’s collaboration with her assistants has been described by one of them in The New York Times as “the closest thing there is to a Renaissance workshop.” The paintings are enormous, photorealistic enamel-on-metal depictions of women bathing behind steamed-up panes of glass simulating showers.

  • Marilyn Minter’S Dirty Pretty Things by Lilly Lampe
    The Village Voice, November 16, 2016 Marilyn Minter’s Dirty Pretty Things By Lilly Lampe "Pre%y/Dirty," Marilyn Minter's retrospec6ve at the Brooklyn Museum, begins with a series of photographs that has haunted her career. "Coral Ridge Towers" was created in 1969, when Minter was an undergraduate at the University of Florida, Gainesville. The images feature her mother, a beau6ful Southern belle turned drug addict, insolently smoking and primping her striking yet ravaged features. It's a far cry from the powerful, outspoken feminist nature of Minter's work from recent decades, though not a complete devia6on. Minter is best known for pieces that visually thrust together adjec6ves that seem oxymoronic — shiny, grotesQue, gli%ering, filthy — pain6ngs and photographs featuring blurry female parts, coated with dirt, makeup, and other substances, cropped close to show pores, freckles, and flaws. It's easy to see where a vain yet crumbling mother fits in. But Minter comes across as expert witness rather than vic6m. "Pre%y/Dirty" is the rare retrospec6ve that also acts as an engrossing biography, skillfully revealing the key shiTs in Minter's career, the points where the green ar6st transformed into skilled provocateur, the path that made her a star. We see Minter as a young pop ar6st in New York City, playing with found images of women and Benday dots (in Big Girls, 1986, an iconic image of Sophia Loren eyeing Jayne Mansfield's rack is cropped and layered with an image of young girls looking at one another — the downside of the female gaze, if you will) and dipping a toe into photorealist pain6ng.
