Lauren Frances Adams is a painter who lives and works in Baltimore. She earned her BFA at University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, and her MFA at Carnegie Mellon University. She grew up in North Carolina on a pig farm. Her work engages political and social histories through iconic images and domestic ornament. Her work has been exhibited across the United States at museums, university galleries, and artist-run spaces, with an upcoming 2021 project at the Baltimore Museum of Art. She attended the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture and has held residencies at the Cité Internationale des Arts in Paris and the Sacatar Foundation in Brazil. She is the recipient of a Joan Mitchell Foundation MFA Award, and a 2016 Pollock-Krasner Foundation Award. Americans for the Arts recognized projects she co-produced in 2011 and 2017 as “outstanding public art.” Her work has been published in Frieze, BmoreArt, The Baltimore Sun, Artslant, and Hyperallergic.
