Serena Perrone

Serena Perrone is a multi-disciplinary artist who employs various techniques ranging from printmaking and drawing to photography and writing to reflect on personal mythologies, examine differing forms of nostalgia, recount stories of destruction, regeneration, transition, enchantment and disenchantment, and capture images of the synchronistic and uncanny ways that magic and wonder are encountered in liminal spaces.

Perrone's work has been exhibited widely, including exhibitions at the Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis, the Cleveland Museum of Art, the Philadelphia Museum of Art and the International Print Center New York.

Her work is included in the permanent collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Whitney Museum of American Art, the New York Public Library, Yale University Art Gallery, the Cleveland Museum of Art, the Detroit Institute of Arts, the Smith College Museum of Art, the Rhode Island School of Design Museum, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and the Library of Congress.

She was nominated for a Pew Fellowship in 2017 and has received grants from the Pollock-Krasner Foundation, the Santo Foundation, the William J. Cooper Foundation, and the Vermont Studio Center. She is represented by Cade Tompkins Projects.

A graduate of the Rhode Island School of Design with an MFA in Printmaking, she splits her time between the United States and Italy. She is currently the Assistant Professor of Printmaking, Tenure Track at Georgia State University in Atlanta. Previously, she was the Assistant Professor of Printmaking and Drawing at Pratt Institute's upstate campus at Munson-Williams-Proctor Arts Institute in New York, and a Visiting Critic at RISD. She is the co-creator and Director of Officina Stamperia del Notaio, an international multi-disciplinary artists' residency program and printmaking studio in Sicily.
