Sarah Morris

Sarah Morris is a British-American artist, born in Sevenoaks, England, on June 20, 1967, and currently living in New York. Since the mid-1990s, she has brought a fresh perspective to painting with her abstract geometric reflections of urban environments. In her works, she has explored the psychological typologies of cities such as Midtown Manhattan, Las Vegas, Paris, Rio de Janeiro, Abu Dhabi, and Osaka. Morris studied at Brown University and Cambridge University and participated in the Whitney Museum of American Art's Independent Study Program. In 2001, she won the Joan Mitchell Foundation Painting Award and was a visiting artist at the American Academy in Berlin from 1999-2000. Morris's works have been exhibited in prestigious institutions such as the Fondation Beyeler in Basel, the Fondation Louis Vuitton in Paris, and the Hamburger Bahnhof in Berlin. In 2019, she gained attention with her work "Gaia's Thousand Names," and in 2024, her film "ETC" was screened on the facade of the M+ art center.
