<span class="mw-page-title-main">Ian Pedigo</span> American artist

Ian Pedigo, is a sculptor, image and installation-based artist and writer living and working in New York, NY (Queens). His artwork involves merging natural materials with the synthetic, as well as the experience of material and image-based aesthetics as acts of discovery, creation, and recovery. His works can be perceived as premeditated artifacts of an archaeological nature, found within the context of the near-present while appearing as discrete aesthetic objects in their own right. He classifies his work as dealing with a "modal environs", referring to an art produced within an aesthetics-based ecology similar to the Vibrant Matter and Ecology of Matter of Jane Bennett. He received his Master of Arts from the University of Texas at Austin with concentrations in installation, sculpture, and communications. He also participated in the 2001 Salzburg International Summer Academy of Fine Art, studying with Ilya Kabakov & Emilia Kabakov and the theorist/critic Boris Groys.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Dona Nelson</span> American painter (born 1947)

Dona Nelson is an American painter, best known for immersive, gestural, primarily abstract works employing unorthodox materials, processes and formats to disrupt conventional notions of painting and viewership. A 2014 New Yorker review observed, "Nelson gives notice that she will do anything, short of burning down her house to bully painting into freshly spluttering eloquence." Since 2002, long before it became a more common practice, Nelson has produced free-standing, double-sided paintings that create a more complex, conscious viewing experience. According to New York Times critic Roberta Smith, Nelson has dodged the burden of a "superficially consistent style," sustained by "an adventuresome emphasis on materials" and an athletic approach to process that builds on the work of Jackson Pollock. Writers in Art in America and Artforum credit her experimentation with influencing a younger generation of painters exploring unconventional techniques with renewed interest. Discussing one of Nelson's visceral, process-driven works, curator Klaus Kertess wrote, the paint-soaked "muslin is at once the tool, the medium, and the made."
