Claudia Baez

Claudia Doring Baez's paintings are animated by a reverence for art history and literature, rendered in a contemporary, expressionistic vocabulary.  Baez engages in conversations with the work of some of the great artists from the past centuries that she resonates with — she selects, re-creates, and adopts details from images to create her own language.  Baez's work is steeped with references that range from German Expressionism to Marcel Proust, Brassaï, the rich renditions of Titian to abstracted versions of the work of Fra Angelico and Johannes Vermeer along with inspirations from contemporary artists such as Cindy Sherman. 

Exhibitions include shows in NYC, Mexico City, Aqua Art Fair, Miami, ZonaMaco Art Fair, Mexico City, Scope Basel Switzerland, Lehman College NY, La MaMa Galleria NY, Ethan Cohen Gallery, Galeria Emma Molina, and she's featured in publications such as Art News Magazine.
