Mary Reid Kelley
Mary Reid Kelley, born 1979, combines painting, performance, and her distinctive wordplay-rich poetry in polemical, graphically stylized videos. Made in collaboration with her partner Patrick Kelley, these videos have been exhibited in solo exhibitions at the Hammer Museum, the ICA Boston, the Neuer Kunstverein Wien, and SITE Santa Fe. Upcoming European solo exhibitions include Kunsthalle Bremen and Museum M, Leuven. Their video work has been reviewed in “The New York Times”, “The Los Angeles Times”, “W Magazine”, “La Reppublica”, “Vogue”, “The New Yorker”, “Artforum”, “Flash Art”, “Frieze”, “ARTnews”, and “Art in America”. Mary and Patrick live and work in upstate New York. “This Is Offal” is their first work for live performance, debuting at Foreign Affairs 2016.
