Throughout her career, Cindy Sherman has presented a sustained, eloquent, and provocative exploration of the construction of contemporary identity and the nature of representation, drawn from the unlimited supply of iℱmages from movies, TV, magazines, the Internet, and art history. Her fascination with the grotesque and macabre, together with her unrelenting critical gaze, has established her as one of the most influential artists of the postmodern era. Her work has🦂 been the subject of many museum exhibitions, including a current major retrospective at the Fondation Louis Vuitton, Paris, through August 2020, as well as those at The Museum of Modern Art, New York, and the National Portrait Gallery, London, both in 2019.
