Beverly Semmes

Beverly Semmes
Born	Washington, DC, US
Nationality	American
Known for	Sculpture, Textile, Fashion, Installation, Performance, Video, Photography

Beverly Semmes is an American artist who works with sculpture, textile, video, photography, performance, and large-scale installation. Born in Washington, D.C. and currently residing in New York City, she teaches sculpture at the Steinhart School of New York University and the Pratt Institute.

Early life and education

She received a BA in art history and, in 1982, a BFA, after attending the Boston Museum School and the Skowhegan School of Art. In 1987, she received an MFA from the Yale University School of Art, New Haven. Her work has appeared at the Hirshorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Washington, D.C.; the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York City, NY; the Denver Art Museum; and the Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art.^[1]

Career and work

Her earliest shows were large-scale exhibitions in New York City in 1990, followed by similar installations in Winston-Salem, North Carolina and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Her works were soon presented in European spaces including the Camden Arts Centre in London; the Pecci Museum in Prato, Italy; and the Irish Museum of Modern Art in Dublin.^[2]

The Art/Fashion catalogue of the 1996 Biennale di Firenze stated, "Beverly Semmes's gargantuan dresses embody the myth that woman's appetite - sexual, intellectual, or material - would, if not restrained, expand to unimaginable proportions… Semmes, therefore, is a couturiere for the mythical, all-devouring female: from the femme fatale to the castrating phallic mother, from Medusa to Madonna."^[3]

Nancy Princenthal reviewed her exhibition In the O (2003) at Leslie Tonkonow Artworks + Projects, describing large pieces of orange chiffon fabric arranged surrounding a room, hanging from ceiling to floor. She said, "to step inside was to be embraced by a mammoth skirt." The installation also featured mats the size of floor rugs made of Band-Aids on the floor. Princenthal felt the title and installation, "suggest that viewers would find themselves both bodily encircled, and metaphorically inscribed within a narrative of unmistakably sexual coloration," and "she also entertains yearnings toward infantile, even prenatal merging with the maternal, body and soul."^[4]
