Alexandra Grant

Alexandra Grant is a contemporary mixed media artist whose body of work includes painting, sculpture, photography, installation, video, and publishing. Her art is characterized by an interdisciplinary fascination with language as image, particulary in embodying the written word. Described as a "writer who writes with materials" and "a radical collaborator," Grant engages with the work of writers, poets, philosophers and linguists including Sophocles, Wislawa Szymborska, Michael Joyce, Hélène Cixous, and Keanu Reeves. Grant has exhibited in museums and galleries around the world, and her works are in museum collections such as the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles, the Blanton Museum of Art in Austin, Texas, and others. Grant co-founded X Artists' Books and runs the grantLOVE project, which supports artists and arts education through the sale of art editions.
