Ellen Gallagher (1965-present)


Ellen Gallagher, born in Providence, Rhode Island in 1965, is a mixed media artist. She attended Oberlin College and the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. Some of her most famous pieces are "eXelento" and "DeLuxe," which are grid-like collages of magazines specific to a certain subject. From far away, Gallagher's work simply looks abstract, but as you get closer, you see the painted detail on each frame of her pieces.
