Atlanta, GA
Laura Tanner’s drawings and installations are often discussed as part of the Southern Gothic literary tradition. As a Georgia native, she was repeatedly confronted with the consequences of revisionist histories and was haunted by the dualities that it produced. Her drawings act as sites of inquiry into the false narratives that reinforce systems of inequity. Since receiving her MFA from the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign, Tanner has exhibited nationally, including exhibitions at the Weatherspoon Art Museum, the Ogden Museum of Southern Art, and the Art on Paper fair during Armory week in New York City. She is also the Co-Producer and Co-Host of The Open Call, an arts podcast that aims to break down barriers of access between the artist's studio and the viewer. Tanner's work can be viewed at the Jonathan Ferrara Gallery in New Orleans or in the collection of the Weatherspoon Art Museum in Greensboro, NC.
