Amalia Ulman
Amalia Ulman is an Argentinian/Spanish artist based in New York City. Her works, which are primarily voiced in the first person, blur the distinction between the artist and the object of study, often creating humorous, gentle deceptions while exploring class imitation and the relationship between consumerism and identity.
