Amanda Ross-Ho: SOMEBODY STOP ME

Amanda Ross-Ho: SOMEBODY STOP ME

New York, NY, USA Thursday, April 1, 2010–Saturday, May 1, 2010

Opening Reception Thursday April 1, 6-8 pm.

Mitchell-Innes & Nash is pleased to announce SOMEBODY STOP ME, the first New York solo exhibition for Los Angeles artist Amanda Ross-Ho.

Ross-Ho's work brings together seemingly oppositional languages and spaces: personal imagery and autobiographical artifacts are mined for formal qualities; traces and residues from studio practices are meticulously re-created as deliberate gestures; boundaries between private work and public display are collapsed. SOMEBODY STOP ME uses sculpture, photographs, paintings, and engagement with the gallery's architecture to define terms of a constantly evolving personal language.

Amanda Ross-Ho received an MFA from University of Southern California and her BFA from the Art Institute of Chicago. She has been included in museum exhibitions at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago, and the Orange County Museum, among others. She was included in the 2008 Whitney Biennial. Her work is now on view in Production Site: The Artist's Studio Inside and Out at MCA Chicago, and she is currently the focus of a project show at Pomona College Museum of Art. She is also represented in Los Angeles by Cherry & Martin and in London by The Approach.
