Born in California and a westerner at heart, Betsy Kenyon has lived most of her adult life in the east, currently residing in NYC with her partner, Richard Rutkowski. Her art explorations, exhibitions, and rambling lifestyle take her to many parts of the country and world. Four Directions, was recently exhibited at the United Nations in New York City, a project created while living in a camper van and traveling the contiguous United States. Her book and photo project, Slumber, was exhibited and published in South Korea and documents our isolated & surreal nights of unrest during Covid. She has been a visual arts resident at Pioneer Works, Lower Manhattan Cultural Center, and Brooklyn Darkroom and co-created an experimental narrative short film, Memento Mori, to be released in 2025. Her artwork can be found in many collections, including the Centre Georges Pompidou, The Art Institute of Chicago, Photography Collection; Museum of Modern Art/Franklin Furnace Book Collection; Whitney Museum of American Art, Library; and Yale University, Art and Architecture Library.
