About the Artist

Arlene Shechet (b. 1951, New York) is a multidisciplinary sculptor living and working in New York City and the Hudson Valley. A major, critically acclaimed survey of her work, All At Once, which the New York Times called ‘some of the most imaginative American sculpture of the past 20 years, and some of the most radically personal,’ was on view at The Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston, in 2015 with an accompanying monograph. Shechet’s work also includes historical museum installations. Porcelain, No Simple Matter: Arlene Shechet and the Arnhold Collection was on view at The Frick Collection, New York (2016); and From Here On Now at The Phillips Collection, Washington, D.C., (2016). The artist is currently working on an ambitious large-scale public project that includes monumental porcelain and mixed-media sculptures, opening September 2018 at Madison Square Park in New York.
