Sue Coe

bio

Sue Coe is one of the most important politically oriented artists living in the U.S. today. From the outset of her career, working as an illustrator for such political publications as The New York Times and Time Magazine, Coe was committed to reaching a broad audience through the print media. Later, she began creating extended visual discourses on subjects (such as racial discrimination or animal rights) that she felt were not being adequately addressed by conventional news organizations. Widely written about and exhibited, Coe has appeared on the cover of Art News and been the subject of a retrospective exhibition at the Hirshorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington, D.C. Her work is in the collections of many major museums, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Museum of Modern Art in New York.

Sue Coe has been exclusively represented by The Galerie St. Etienne in New York, NY since 1989. For more information on Sue Coe also visit the Graphic Witness.
