Sue Williams
Sue Williams (b. 1954, Chicago) is a feminist painter who often combines themes of gender politics and the body into her work. She came to prominence in the early 1980s with works that echoed and argued with the dominant postmodern feminist aesthetic of the time. She was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1993. Williams has exhibited her work internationally, and is a part of numerous public collections, including at the Centre d'Art Contemporain in Geneva, The Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, the Museum of Modern Art, the New Museum, and the Whitney Museum of American Art, amongst others.
