Sadie Benning (b. 1973) is the youngest artist to have ever been included in a Whitney Biennial, in 1993 at the age of 19. That work was shot on the PXL2000, a Fisher-Price pixelvision camera, and explored Benning’s developing understanding of their own sexuality and gender. The experimental, idiosyncratic spirit of Benning’s earliest work has carried through their mature practice, supporting the material hybridity of their work, which includes hand-drawn animation, painting, sculpture and installation. Important solo exhibitions include Pain Thing, Wexner Center for the Arts, Columbus, OH; Shared Eye, Renaissance Society, Chicago, IL, and Kunsthalle Basel, Switzerland; and Play Pause at the Dia Foundation for the Arts, New York; the Power Plant, Toronto, Ontario; and the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York. Their work Shared Eye was installed in Surrounds: 11 Installations at the Museum of Modern Art, New York, when it re-opened in 2019. Benning’s work has also been included in Trigger: Gender as a Tool and a Weapon, New Museum, New York; Painting 2.0: Expression in the Information Age, Museum Brandhorst, Munich, Germany; and the 2013 Carnegie International, Carnegie Museum of Art, Pittsburgh, PA. They are one of the founding members of the iconic band Le Tigre. Their work is in many important public collections including the Museum of Modern Art, New York; the Hammer Museum, Los Angeles; the Whitney Museum of American Art; and the Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris.
