Joy Garnett

Joy Garnett is an artist based in New York. She studied painting at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris and received her MFA from The City College of New York. Garnett's subject is the apocalyptic-sublime at the intersections of media, politics and culture. Her paintings, based on photographs she appropriates from the Internet, exploit the accessibility and malleability of images in the media. ["Brewer, Paul: Curator's Statement. "Blasts," G Fine Art, Washington, DC, Sept 10 - Oct 22, 2005": [http://www.gfineartdc.com/show_sept05/show_sept05.htm] ] Her work is often associated with sampling in new media art and with appropriation art ["Portfolio: On the Rights of Molotov Man - Appropriation and the art of context," by Joy Garnett and Susan Meiselas. Harper's Magazine (February 2007) [pp.53-58] .": [http://harpers.org/archive/2007/02/0081386] ] .
