Sarah Oppenheimer

Born 1972

Sarah Oppenheimer is a New York City-based artist whose projects explore the articulations and experience of built space. Her work involves precise transformations of architecture that disrupt, subvert or shuffle visitors' visual and bodily experience. Artforum critic Jeffrey Kastner wrote that Oppenheimer's artworks "typically induce a certain kind of vaguely vertiginous, almost giddy uncertainty" that over time turns "indeterminacies of apprehension into epistemological uncertainties, epistemic puzzlement into ontological perplexity."
Oppenheimer's work has been exhibited internationally at venues including Mudam, Wexner Center for the Arts, Mass MoCA, Kunstmuseum Thun, and Baltimore Museum of Art. She has received a Guggenheim Fellowship, the Rome Prize, and awards from the Joan Mitchell, Louis Comfort Tiffany and Anonymous Was A Woman foundations, among others.
