Come hear artist Nikki Maloof speak on

“Uneasy Domesticity: The Painted World of Nikki Maloof"

Thursday, January 16th, 2025

Wine & Cheese at 6 p.m., followed by the talk at 6:30pm 

Nikki Maloof’s paintings depict a world hidden within the mind. Imagined domestic interiors and animals become proxies for the human experience. Her subjects convey existential loneliness, but that loneliness is buoyed by humor, capricious paint handling, and the use of a saturated palette. Nikki has shown throughout the US and Europe, and is currently exhibiting her latest body of work at Perrotin gallery in Paris. Works from that show and more information can be found at: https://leaflet.perrotin.com/view/924/around-the-clock

Nikki completed her BFA at Indiana University before obtaining her MFA in painting and printmaking from the Yale School of Art. She works and resides in South Hadley.

This talk is part of the Amherst Woman’s Club Thursday Evening Series, which features remarkable and accomplished local women and their personal journey of challenges and achievements.
