# Sadie Benning URL: https://vielmetter.com/artists/sadie-benning/ Represented by Vielmetter Los Angeles Sadie Benning creates experimental videos, performances, and wall-mounted works that blur the distinctions between painting, drawing, sculpture, and photo collage. The material hybridity of Benning’s work speak to a continued desire to foreground ambiguity as an important aspect of making artwork. Benning is still the youngest artist to have ever been included in a Whitney Biennial, in 1993 at the age of 19. That earliest work was made using a PixelVision video camera to make highly scripted videos that explored the aesthetics of editing and the performance of sexuality and gender. Benning’s practice evolved from these first-person narratives, to hand-drawn animations, to wall works that defy definition as either painting or sculpture, and sequential installations incorporating found and created images and found objects. In their most recent work, Benning returns to the formal and conceptual framework of time-based media, often creating quasi-narrative sequences of wall works, similar to the animated frames of their previous work in video. **Sadie Benning**was born in 1973 in Madison, WI, and lives and works in New York. Recent solo exhibitions include *Sadie Benning: Daily Forecasts: October 28th, 2020 – September 6th, 2021,*Maxwell Graham, New York, NY; *Underwater,*Kaufmann Repetto Milano, Milan, Italy; *The Touch, the Amulet and the Saltation,*Vielmetter Los Angeles, Los Angeles, CA; *Intangible cigarette,*Air de Paris, Romainville, France; *Pain Thing*, Wexner Center for the Arts, Columbus, OH; *Shared Eye*, Renaissance Society, Chicago, IL, and Kunsthalle Basel, Switzerland; and *Play Pause* at the Dia Foundation for the Arts, New York; the Power Plant, Toronto, Ontario; and the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York. Their work *Shared Eye* was installed in *Surrounds: 11 Installations* at the Museum of Modern Art, New York, when it re-opened in 2019. Benning’s work has also been included in *The Journey Continues,*Wisch Family Gallery, Anderson Collection at Stanford University, Stanford, CA; *Trigger: Gender as a Tool and a Weapon*, New Museum, New York; *Painting 2.0: Expression in the Information Age*, Museum Brandhorst, Munich, Germany; and the 2013 Carnegie International, Carnegie Museum of Art, Pittsburgh, PA. Their work is in many important public collections including the Museum of Modern Art, New York; the Hammer Museum, Los Angeles; the Whitney Museum of American Art; the Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston; the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; and the Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris. They are one of the founding members of the iconic band Le Tigre. ## Exhibitions - [Sadie Benning inRhapsody: Works from the Cooper Rosenwasser Collection](https://vielmetter.com/exhibitions/sadie-benning-rhapsody-works-from-the-cooper-rosenwasser-collection.md): March 4 — June 28, 2026 · Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive (BAMPFA) · Artists: Sadie Benning -
