BIOGRAPHY

RYAN WALLACE’s mixed media paintings conjure an ethereal space between the material and intangible. Repurposing fragments from earlier and developing pieces, the artist seams, layers, excavates, and manipulates the surface of his work to incorporate a wealth of textures and techniques. By limiting his resources, Wallace has developed a rich process-based practice whereby each body of work leads to the next in terms of materials and composition.

Wallace lives and works in Brooklyn and East Hampton, NY. He received his BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design. Recent solo exhibitions include Romer Young Gallery, San Francisco; 56 Henry, NYC; University of the Arts, Philadelphia; and Cooper Cole, Toronto. Work has recently been exhibited at the Rhode Island School of Design Museum, Providence; ICA at MECA, Portland; Bunker Artspace, West Palm Beach; Brooklyn Academy of Music, Brooklyn; Marjorie Barrick Museum, Las Vegas; and the Elaine de Kooning House, East Hampton, among others. Wallace’s works can be found in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art, NYC; the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, San Francisco; Museum of Contemporary Art, San Diego; the Rhode Island School of Design Museum, Providence; and the Watermill Center, Watermill.
