ARTIST PROFILE: Sandi Slone (born 1939 in Boston, Massachusetts) is a distinguished American abstract painter recognized for her significant contributions to Lyrical Abstraction and Color Field painting. Emerging in the 1970s, Slone became known for her innovative use of industrial tools—such as massive push brooms and squeegees—to apply acrylic layers, creating expansive canvases that balance physical texture with atmospheric depth. Her work often explores the intersection of geological forms and fluid movement, characterized by a sophisticated palette and a command of scale. Over a career spanning several decades, her art has been exhibited at major institutions including the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) and the Whitney Museum of American Art, and she has influenced generations of artists through her long-standing faculty position at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts at Tufts University.
