Annette Lemieux first came to prominence as a Pictures Generation artist; since then, her work has continued to delve into history, politics, and cultural experience with characteristic intelligence and humor. A conceptual artist who remains committed to a diversity of approaches, Lemieux's nimble use of varied mediums and practices, objects, language, and images allows her work to powerfully and eloquently express her chosen content.

Her work is in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art, New York; The Whitney Museum of American Art; The Solomon R Guggenheim Museum; The Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; The Decordova Museum; among others. Solo exhibitions include the Wadsworth Atheneum, Hartford; New Museum of Contemporary Art, New York; De Appel, Amsterdam; and the Davis Museum and Cultural Center at Wellesley College. A traveling mid-career retrospective was recently shown at the Worcester Art Museum. Lemieux is Senior Lecturer in the Department of Visual and Environmental Studies at Harvard.
