Sue Williams was born in 1954 in Chicago. She came to prominence in the early 1980s with works that echoed and argued with the dominant postmodern feminist aesthetic of the time. In the years since, her aesthetic interests have moved toward abstraction along with her subject matter and memories. She has had solo shows at the Vienna Secession, Geneva Center for Contemporary Art, and Staatliche Kunsthalle Baden-Baden, Germany, along with being included in 3 consecutive Whitney Biennials. Williams was included in a group show in 2013 with Richard Prince, Doug Aitken, Eva Rothschild. Her solo show at 303 Gallery opens January 9th, 2014. She lives and works in New York.
