ABOUT THE ARTIST

Dana Hoey is a visual artist working with photography, who has been using “the camera to reveal the inner life of women”. For more than 20 years, she has explored what it means to be female by investigating women’s social roles and relationships using both highly staged dramatizations and reenactments documented through photography and video.

Dana Hoey has exhibited and taught since 1996. She received a B.A. in Philosophy from Wesleyan University, and an M.F.A. from Yale University. She is represented by Petzel Gallery, NY, and has presented solo museum exhibits at the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington DC, The Center for Art, Design and Visual Culture at the University of Maryland, and The University Art Museum at the University at Albany, NY. Currently she has a large video installation “Fighters” as part of “Photography in the Expanded Field” at MASS MoCA, North Adams, MA. She was professor at Columbia School of Art from 2001 to 2007, and currently is visiting artist at The Cooper Union, NYC and Bard College MFA program. Three books are available on her work,The Phantom Sex with essay by Johanna Burton, Experiments in Primitive Living, with essay by Maurice Berger, and Profane Waste in collaboration with the writer Gretchen Rubin.
