Jennifer White Kuri

Jennifer White Kuri currently lives and works in Los Angeles, California. Kuri received undergraduate and graduate degrees from the University of California, Berkeley where she studied with leading painters of the San Francisco Bay Area Figurative School, including Joan Brown and Elmer Bischoff. Drawing from a diverse cultural and geographic landscape, Kuri’s work often takes a diaristic approach. She thrives in the space between the representational and the conceptual, allowing her to exploit contextual and perceptual shifts. Kuri has exhibited in the United States and Europe in numerous solo and group shows including ICASTICA 2013: Europe’s first International Women’s Art Biennale in Arezzo, Italy; the Los Angeles County Museum of Art; and Art Basel/Miami. Her work can also be found in the permanent collection of the Galleria Comunale d’Arte Contemporanea in Arezzo, Italy; featured on the HBO television series Six Feet Under; and in numerous private collections.
