Ellie Krakow is an American Artist, Educator, and Curator based in New York City.
Her current solo show, "Linoleum Spine" is featured at the Marinaro Gallery in New York City until February 26, 2022.
In this new body of work, Krakow reflects upon the devices of medical intervention, architectures of medical support, and parts of bodies that are the recipients of such intervention. Her glazed ceramic forms reveal her lived experience of bodily fragility, creating objects that – like her, through decades of living with an invisible chronic illness – inhabit the space between flesh and technology.
Ellie Krakow is an interdisciplinary artist who earned her MFA from Hunter College and her BA through study at Yale University and the Rhode Island School of Design. Her work has been shown in solo and group exhibitions at venues including Marinaro, Below Grand, Goodyear Gallery at Dickinson College, NURTUREart, Spring/Break, Field Projects, Thierry Goldberg, Present Company, Wasserman Projects, Kingston Sculpture Biennial, and the Pula Film Festival. Parallel to her studio practice, Krakow works on text-based and curatorial projects as a way to build dialogue and discourse around themes that matter to her including bodily and environmental loss; mirroring as a potential site of transformation; and displaced or disabled communication. Krakow's text-based works have been published in Precog Magazine, VECTOR, Lookie Lookie, and Drain Journal of Contemporary Art and Culture. Her curatorial projects have been shown at The Whitney Museum of American Art, Mazmanian Gallery and Thomas Hunter Project Space. Krakow has participated in residencies at Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture, Yaddo, Abrons Arts Center, and Shandaken: Stormking. She currently teaches sculpture and serves as the director of Mazmanian Gallery at Framingham State University.
This discussion was recorded at her studio in Long Island City in August 2021.
