About Dawn Kramlich
Dawn Kramlich is a queer artist and writer who lives and works in Philadelphia, PA. Her artwork has always been text-based, and her artistic practice involves research on semiotics, poetry (especially ekphrasis), Post-Structuralism, Intersectional Feminism, and the history of text-based American art. Kramlich earned her BA degree from Muhlenberg College, producing the first cross-major creative honors thesis (paintings + poems) in the history of Muhlenberg’s English and Art departments. She then moved to Philadelphia and received her MFA in Studio Art from Moore College of Art & Design. Kramlich regularly lectures at institutions, including PAFA (Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Art), and has shown her work widely in the US and internationally in Ireland. Most notably, her work was included in a solo exhibition titled "Mark My Words" at the Barbara Crawford Gallery in 2023, Maus Contemporary's "Capitolism: The Normalization of Political Violence in the United States" exhibition in 2021, Rowan University Gallery's exhibition entitled "Dialogic" alongside John Giorno, Jaume Plensa, Jenny Holzer, and Glenn Ligon in 2013, and in the 4-person installation-based exhibition entitled "PaperScapes" at the Philadelphia Art Alliance in 2017. Her artwork has been published in "Muhlenberg Magazine," "CODAmagazine," "THE magazine," "Creative Quarterly," and the "I Like Your Work" Podcast's Catalog. Kramlich teaches painting, drawing, sculpture, and art theory at Universities.
