Chloe Piene
1972–

Introduction

Chloe Piene is a visual artist known primarily for her drawing. On drawing, Piene said "I have never questioned drawing and it's primacy ... for me, it is the first thing, and it is the final thing."[1] Chloe Piene was born in the United States and received her BA in Art History with a concentration in Northern Renaissance Art from Columbia University and her MFA in Fine Art from Goldsmiths, University of London. Her identification with drawing as a major medium operates contrary to the normative codex of western art history where “painting is seen as a higher art form in comparison to drawing” [2]
