Elizabeth Pulie
Elizabeth Pulie (b.1968) is based in Sydney. Having initially been involved in a conceptual painting project, Pulie’s recent research concerning contemporary art’s ontology opened her practice to new materials and techniques including sewing, embroidery and painting on hessian, alongside the parallel development of a discursive, theoretical practice.
In 2022, UNSW Galleries held the first major survey of Pulie's work, titled #117 Survey. Other recent solo exhibitions include New Old Paintings at Sarah Cottier Gallery, Sydney 2022, #80 at Knulp, Sydney 2018 and The Conspiracy of Art by Jean Baudrillard, Sarah Cottier Gallery, Sydney 2018. Notable group exhibitions include Bauhaus Now!, Buxton Contemporary, Melbourne 2019; Unfinished Business: Perspectives on art and feminism, Australia Centre for Contemporary Art, Melbourne 2018; Redlands Konica Minolta Art Prize, National Art School, Sydney 2018; The National: New Australian Art, Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney2017; Painting. More Painting, Australian Centre for Contemporary Art, Melbourne 2016; Fabrik: minimalist and conceptual approaches to textiles, Ian Potter Museum of Art, Melbourne 2016. Between 2000 and 2005, Pulie co-directed Front Room gallery and edited and published Lives of the Artists magazine. Her work is held in the collections of The Art Gallery of Western Australia, Perth; the Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney; Melbourne Casino and RACV collections, Melbourne; and the Daimler Chrysler Foundation, New York.
