New York based artist Cheryl Donegan (born 1962) is well known for her integration of performance and video with painting and installation, and her subversive spin on issues pertaining to gender, sex and art. This first substantial survey of her work, published for her 2018 traveling exhibition, examines her paintings, and includes new, highly conceptual work that continues to transgress traditional media, often merging painting with fashion and appropriated imagery gleaned from pop culture. Exhibition: Kunsthaus Zürich, Switzerland (26.08.-12.11.2017) / Aspen Art Museum, U.S.A. (29.06.-16.12.2018) / Contemporary Arts Museum, Houston, U.S.A. (18.01.-31.03.2019).
