Suzanne Wright: Artist Studio Tour

Suzanne Wright is an artist and an assistant professor in painting at the University of Iowa School of art and art history. She earned her BFA at Cooper Union and MFA at the University of California San Diego and also attended Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture. Wright’s paintings, drawings, and collages propose a contemporary "feminist alchemy", forging alternative frames of reference and symbology, with new perspectives that attempt to lead us to a re-vitalized kind of perception, equality, and empowerment. Her exhibition record includes shows at Stephen Friedman Gallery (London), Wilding Cran Gallery (LA). Commonwealth and Council (LA) Luis De Jesus(LA), Stefan Stux (NY), Claire Oliver Gallery (NY), and a most recent solo exhibition “The Alchemy of Equals” at Tappeto Volante projects (NY). She was awarded the Kraus Visiting Professorship in Painting and Drawing at Carnegie Mellon and has taught at several universities in New York and Los Angeles, and was the Grant Wood Fellow in Painting (2019/20) at the University of Iowa. Wright was one of the co-founders of Fierce Pussy, has been an active member of various AIDS and LGBTQ organizations, including ACT UP/New York from 1989-1999. She has an upcoming solo show in Los Angeles (Wilding Can Gallery) in 2026.
