简介

Born in Santa Fe, NM, Nicola López currently lives and makes art in Brooklyn, NY. Through her work in installation, drawing and printmaking, López describes and reconfigures our contemporary—primarily urban—landscape. Her focus on describing ‘place’ stems from interests in anthropology, urban planning and architecture and it has been fueled by time spent working and traveling immersed in different cultures and landscapes. López has participated in numerous residency programs and received several grants and fellowships, including a NYFA Fellowship in Drawing/Printmaking/Book Arts and a grant from the Joan Mitchell Foundation. Her work has been exhibited throughout the United States and internationally at museums including MoMA in NY, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art in LA, the Museo Rufino Tamayo in Mexico City and the Denver Art Museum in Denver, CO and has been featured in solo exhibitions at museums such as the Chazen Museum of Art in Madison, WI and the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York. López’s work is included in the permanent collections of MoMA, NY; The Metropolitan Museum of Art, NY; El Museo del Barrio, NY; Museo Nacional de la Estampa, Mexico City, among others.
