Her large and varied works include paintings, sculptures, drawings, prints, installations, and artist’s books. A graduate of UCLA, Fredman juggled marriage and raising a family with the rigors of developing cutting-edge art. Her final body of work combines goddess imagery, vintage puppets, narrative forays into surreal worlds, and hybrid works combining graffiti with botanical imagery. Fredman’s work can be found in many public and private collections, including the MoMA, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, the Art Institute of Chicago, Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego, and numerous others. Panel information: Join us for a panel featuring Suda House, Robert Pincus, Alfred Pagano, and Allwyn O’Mara discussing Faiya Fredman’s work and processes.
