Deb Sokolow is a Chicago-based artist.[1]

Biography

Chicago-based artist Deb Sokolow creates semi-fictitious narratives with drawing, collage and text which incorporate elements of history, politics, humor and the nefarious. Her large-scale installations, works on paper and panel, and artist books feature a nameless, paranoid narrator who uncovers sinister plots. The main story thread is black ink, representing the voice of this narrator. The narrator's doubts and paranoia are represented in other colors, which branch off from the main story thread. She usually works with three distinct voices, which all interact and disagree with each other.[2]

Deb Sokolow graduated from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 1996, and received her MFA from the Art Institute of Chicago in 2004.[3] Sokolow's solo museum shows include The [https://web.archive.org/web/20130601151546/http://www.thewadsworth.org/deb-sokolow-matrix-166/ Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art] in Hartford, CT, The Kemper Museum in Kansas City; The Spertus Museum of Art, Chicago; a 12 x 12 show at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago; the Abrons Art Center in New York City; INOVA in Milwaukee; and The Moore College of Art in Philadelphia. She has been included in group show shows at the Van Abbemuseum in The Netherlands; Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art in Arizona; Smart Museum in Chicago; Voorkamer in Belgium; and the Invisible-Exports in New York City.

Descriptions of works

  • Someone Tell Mayor Daley, the Pirates are Coming is a single sheet of blue paper which maps out the narrator's suspicions that pirates have infiltrated your Chicago office. The narration is second person, and you suspect something is wrong when all of your co-workers are wearing bandannas and chunky gold earrings. As you delve further into the plot, you realize that the pirates are after Mayor Richard M. Daley's treasure buried at the former site of Meigs Field.
