BETH STUART
BIOGRAPHY
Born in Saskatoon (Saskatchewan), Beth Stuart works in an expanding range of media including writing,
painting, ceramic, textiles, and sculptural installation. Often picking up on overlooked historical moments,
characters and material techniques; she creates alternative plot points in the narrative of modernist
abstraction. Improbable and conflicting ideologies form new negotiations, straight lines collapse, facts blend
into feelings and hard structures dissolve into soft bodies. Notable recent presentations include a solo project
at the Esker Foundation in Calgary Alberta, The Painting Project curated by Louise Dery at UQAM and More
than Two: Let it Make Itself, curated by Micah Lexier at the Power Plant. In 2010 she was shortlisted for the
RBC Painting Prize and in 2011 she received an honorable mention. Beth Stuart is based in Toronto, Ontario.
