Keep Looking Beautiful will showcase paintings by Erin LeAnn Mitchell. A self-described interdisciplinary artist, Mitchell’s work draws from Western art history, pop art, and visual culture to examine ideas around femininity, beauty, and race.
Mitchell received a bachelor’s in fine art from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2011 and a master’s in art from Columbia College in Chicago in 2016.
Mitchell has had her work featured on the television series Empire and was selected to do a commissioned portrait of Dr. Angela Davis highlighting her humanitarian achievements. Mitchell presented the portrait to Dr. Davis during an event held in her honor at the Boutwell Auditorium on February 16, 2019.
Mitchell is currently preparing for her solo show in New York at Kravets & Wehby gallery this fall.
