Mary Corse

Mary Corse (b. 1945, Berkeley, CA) is an abstract painter based in Los Angeles, CA. Corse studied at the Chouinard Art Institute in Los Angeles (now CalArts) in the mid-1960s. Corse is currently represented by Ace Gallery in Los Angeles and Lehmann Maupin in New York. Her paintings are known for their alternately shimmering and opaque surfaces depending on the viewer's position, which Corse achieves by mixing tiny glass beads with her paint. Corse's work has recently reached a wider audience due to her inclusion in Pacific Standard Time, a series of exhibitions focused on Los Angeles art and architecture, organized by the J. Paul Getty Foundation.
