Notes


Krista Franklin (United States, b. 1970), Ghosts of Songs, 2023 

Krista Franklin is a multidisciplinary visual artist and poet who creates fantastical and surrealist works using collage, papermaking, printmaking, and installation. She often appropriates historical imagery with pop culture to merge notions of the past, present, and future, while challenging notions of gender, race, and culture. Franklin regularly works with the medium of collage, appreciating how many small pieces can come together to create a greater whole. She explains, “I appropriate image and text as a political gesture that chisels away at the narratives historically inscribed on women and people of color, and forge imaginative spaces for radical possibilities and visions.” 

Krista Franklin is the author Solo(s) (University of Chicago Press, 2022), Too Much Midnight (Haymarket Books, 2020), the artist book Under the Knife (Candor Arts, 2018), and the chapbook Study of Love & Black Body (Willow Books, 2012). She is a Helen and Tim Meier Foundation for the Arts Achievement Awardee, and a recipient of the Joan Mitchell Foundation Painters and Sculptors Grant. Her visual art has exhibited at the Poetry Foundation, Chicago; Konsthall C, Sweden; the DePaul Museum of Art, Chicago; Studio Museum in Harlem, NY; the Chicago Cultural Center; and the National Museum of Mexican Art, Chicago, among others.
