Joan Linder

In her meticulous pen-and-ink drawings, Joan Linder renders figures and objects at life-sized scale. Whether the subject is a tree, a cadaver, a piece of junk mail, or a well-known political figure, Linder's art revels in what she calls "the sub-technological process of observation and mark-making." Linder's work has been exhibited at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, the Albright-Knox Art Gallery in Buffalo, and the Queens Museum of Art; her numerous awards and fellowships include a grant from the Pollock Krasner Foundation and a residency at Yaddo.
