Caroline Wright dances across her large abstract paintings, bringing music and movement to the visual field. An MFA graduate of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, Wright studied Art and Art History at Brown University and abroad in Florence at Scuola Lorenzo de’Medici. After Brown, she helped establish the artists’ collective La Générale in the Belleville district of Paris, France, which imprinted her with a radical belief in collective possibility.
Wright has exhibited nationally and internationally and performed at The Blanton Museum of Art, The Performing, Writing Symposium in Wellington, New Zealand, and as part of solo exhibitions in New Orleans and Austin. As a new mother of two, Wright’s latest work incorporates the actions of caretaking & storytelling, bringing everything, including the children, to the canvas. Wright loves to collaborate and encourage artists to take up space, explore deeply, and make a living with their art. Wright currently lives in Austin.
