Carrie Ann Baade

Carrie Ann Baade is known for rich allegorical meta-narratives oil paintings. These painted parables combine remnants of Renaissance and Baroque paintings, creating surreal landscapes inhabited by exotic flora, fauna, and figures. As a contemporary painter, she returns to the relevant moments in art history in order to reclaim them, not merely as a quotation of a theme or an image, but also as the materiality of methods and techniques that ultimately create them.

Her work has been exhibited in museums and galleries nationally and internationally, including the Ringling Museum of Art, solo exhibitions: the Delaware Center for Contemporary Art, the Rosenfeld Gallery in Philadelphia, Billy Shire Fine Arts in Los Angeles, the Ningbo Art Museum in China, and the Museum of Contemporary Art in Jacksonville, Florida. Her work was included in 2014 in ¡Orale! Kings and Queens of Cool/Lowbrow Insurgence: The Rise of Post-Pop Art which was listed as Art Bussiness News listed as one of the top 20 exhibits of 2014.

As a native born Louisianian, Carrie has deep southern roots but she has traveled and studied painting history & techniques around the world. The NY ARTS Magazine, the Philadelphia Inquirer, Austin Chronicle, the Albuquerque Journal, and Philadelphia Today have reviewed her work.
