}}Rebecca Morris (born 1969 in Honolulu, Hawaii) is an abstract painter based out of Los Angeles who is known for her compositional aptitude. She is also the author of Manifesto: For Abstractionists and Friends of the Non-Objective. She currently works as a Professor of Painting at the Pasadena City College and has previously lectured at numerous colleges including Columbia University, Bard College, UCLA, USC's School of Fine Arts, and the University of Chicago.[1]

Early life and education

Morris was born in Honolulu, Hawaii and grew up in New Haven, Connecticut, which she says is a place that inspires some of her work.[2] She received her BA from Smith College and her MFA from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago.

Work

Morris's artistic process may be characterized as fluid and spontaneous, manifesting abstract ideas through painterly forms and compositional acuity. She has said of her own work that "the process of painting involves a sense of what one wants in their internal world."[2] Employing many formal elements of design and promoting the idea of the unconscious, Morris avoids describing subject matter as she does not want to dictate what interpretations her painted forms may elicit. Some of her influences are the physical space of her studio, Joan Mitchell, James Meyer, and Terry Riley.[3] Some compositions are made working flat on the floor, and many include colors that suggest a kind of interior of overlapping paintings, objects and wall hanging arrangements. Her artistic practice has been likened to Laura Owens's free sense of historical reference, as well as Frank Stella and Richard Tuttle.[4]

Awards

Morris is a recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship and has also received awards from The City of Los Angeles, Tiffany Foundation, The Durfee Foundation, Art Matters, and the Illinois Arts Council.[1]

Exhibitions

Morris has exhibited at 2014 Whitney Biennial (New York), The Kunstmuseum St. Gallen (Switzerland), Friedrich Petzel (New York), The Hessel Art Museum (New York), The Museum of Contemporary Art (Chicago), and Night Gallery (Los Angeles).[1]
