Lecture Date: November 18, Monday, 7-8pm (EST)

Sarah Faux (b. 1986, Boston, MA, lives and works in Brooklyn, NY) makes paintings that embrace unabashed sensuality and pleasure. Faux's compositions teeter on the edge of reality, revealing how much of our sensory lives take place beneath the surface. Faux has held solo exhibitions at Hales New York (2023), M+B, Los Angeles (2021, 2019), Capsule Shanghai, China (2020, 2018) and Stems Gallery, Brussels (2016), among others. She has been included in many group shows, including Sim Smith, London (2023), Lyles & King, New York (2022) and Loyal Gallery, Stockholm (2020). Faux has received numerous residencies and awards, including a Pollock-Krasner Foundation Grant (2023), a fellowship at the Lower East Side Printshop, New York City (2018-19) and artist residencies at Yaddo, Saratoga Springs, NY (2017, 2012). Faux's paintings have been written about in Cultured Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Modern Painters, i-D Vice and Artsy, among others. Faux holds an MFA from Yale University.
