Audrey Barcio lives in Chicago, IL, and she’s an Assistant Professor at Ball State University in Muncie, IN (yep, she commutes!).
Her work negates the heritage of abstraction intersecting with the tools of the virtual industrial age. Through the use of universal symbology that is rooted in the language of the early abstractionists, her work strives to transcend the accepted cultural raison d’être. Barcio received her BAE from Herron School of Art and Design and her MFA from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. She attended the Pont-Aven School of Contemporary Art in Brittany, France, and completed a Vermont Studio Center residency in 2017, and is a 2019 Pollock - Krasner Foundation Grant recipient.
Her work has been published in New American Paintings and has been featured in multiple group exhibitions around the U.S., including Art in America at the Art Miami Satellite Fair, ART IN CONTEXT: Selections from the Marjorie Barrick Museum of Art Collection, Las Vegas, NV, and GLAMFA at UC Long Beach. Recent solo exhibitions include Syracuse University, New York, the Las Vegas Government Center, Las Vegas, NV, University of Nevada, Las Vegas, and Tube Factory, Indianapolis, IN. Barcio’s work is included in several public and private collections, including that of the Barrick Museum of Art.
