James Nares: Online

Past exhibition
January 15 – April 15, 2021

  • About the Artist
  • Explore
  • Over the course of a five-decade career, Nares has investigated, challenged, and expanded the boundaries of her multi-media practice that encompasses film, music, painting, photography, and performance. She continues to employ various media to explore physicality, motion, and the unfolding of time.

    In the 1980s, Nares began to paint using brushes of her own manufacture to create monumental strokes that appear almost three dimensional in their detail and depth, recording a gestural passage of time and motion across the canvas. The “brushstrokes” have become an essential and most recognizable aspect of Nares’s practice and are a series that she continues to explore and expand upon.

    Jamie Nares

    Over the course of a five-decade career, Jamie Nares has investigated, challenged, and expanded the boundaries of her multi-media practice that encompasses film, music, painting, photography, and performance. She continues to employ various media to explore physicality, motion, and the unfolding of time.  

    Nares has been the subject of numerous solo exhibitions, including at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York and a career-spanning retrospective at the Milwaukee Art Museum in 2019. Her work is included in several prominent public collections, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; the Museum of Modern Art, New York; the Buffalo AKG Art Museum, Buffalo, NY; and the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York. A career-spanning survey of her film and video works were presented in 2008 at the Anthology Film Archives, New York, and in 2011 at the IFC Center, New York. In 2014, Rizzoli published the most comprehensive monograph on Nares’ career to date. Nares has lived and worked in New York since 1974. She has been represented by Kasmin since 1991.
