AMERICAN SAMPLER | Mary Addison Hackett

December 1 -  December 31, Online Exclusively on Artsy

Mary Addison Hackett
"American Sampler"  December 1- 31, 2020

When California went into lockdown, I set about trying to make sense of the imposed order and ensuing chaos of life during quarantine. Black Lives Matter, death counts, environmental disasters, and politics filled the news. I began documenting the minutiae of daily life with an even greater attention to detail. Using obsessive mark-making combined with both abstract and observational approaches, the works in American Sampler are from an ongoing body of works on paper and photographs I’ve made in response to the ‘new normal’ and epic moments that have acted as catalysts for social change during the 2020 Pandemic.

Mary Addison Hackett is a visual artist whose work is grounded in the aesthetics of everyday life. She has a diaristic practice and uses her day-to-day life as a means of ongoing critical investigation. Her practice includes painting, photography, video, writing, and other time-based projects.

Since the early 90s, Hackett has exhibited and screened her work in museums, galleries, and film festivals, throughout the United States and abroad, including the Joshua Treenial at BoxoPROJECTS in Joshua Tree, California; the Ogden Museum of Southern Art in New Orleans; the Torrance Art Museum in Torrance, California; ACME., PØST, Serious Topics, and Kristi Engle Gallery, all in Los Angeles; Marcia Wood Gallery in Atlanta; John Davis Gallery in Hudson, New York; and Tinney Contemporary and David Lusk Gallery, in Nashville, Tennessee. Screenings include the Aurora Picture Show (Houston, TX); Plexus Projects (Brooklyn, NY); and The New York Underground Film Festival, among others.

She is the recipient of several professional grants and awards and has participated in residencies in the US and abroad. Her work is represented in public collections including the J. Paul Getty Trust, the Phyllis and Ross Escalette Permanent Collection of Art, and the Music City Center Public Collection. Her work has been reviewed by Christopher Knight in the Los Angeles Times, and featured in numerous publications. Born in Atlanta, Georgia, Hackett grew up in Nashville, Tennessee. She received her MFA in Studio Art/Video from the University of Illinois at Chicago and her BFA in Painting from The University of Tennessee, Knoxville. She is currently based in Joshua Tree, California.
