The AAM’s 2017–18 Gabriela and Ramiro Garza Distinguished Artist in Residence, Cheryl Donegan, is a pioneering figure in contemporary conceptual art. For the past two decades, her multidisciplinary practice has investigated the notion of surface—of the canvas, screen, fabric, or her own body. As part of her residency and solo exhibition, Donegan will premiere a new fashion line in a presentation at the museum. Directed and choreographed in collaboration with artist Alix Pearlstein, this free show features models from the Roaring Fork Valley wearing couture pieces.

Anicka Yi was born in Seoul, South Korea, in 1971, and currently lives and works in New York.

Guggenheim Museum, New York, the Fridericianum, Kassel, Germany, Kunsthalle Basel, List Visual Arts Center, MIT, and the Cleveland Museum of Art.
