Cristin Tierney Gallery is pleased to present a group exhibition entitled Influencers, including artists such as Diane Burko, Yayoi Kusama, Abby Leigh, Wangechi Mutu, Judy Pfaff, Amy Sillman, Sara Siestreem (Hanis Coos), Audra Skuodas, and Lynette Yiadom-Boakye, among others. This exhibition is organized by Cristin Tierney and Adam Sheffer, and opens Friday, January 9th, with a public reception from 6:00 to 8:00 pm. Influencers will close Saturday, February 14th.
Influencers considers influence not as visibility or celebrity, but as an ethos, as it operates across art history and artistic communities: through mentorship, exchange, and the transmission of ideas. Bringing together artists whose work has already exerted lasting impact and influence, alongside those poised to do so, the exhibition positions influence as a collective and evolving force rather than a fixed designation—a continuum shaped by persistence, generosity, and engagement over time.
Founded in 2010, Cristin Tierney Gallery is a contemporary art gallery with a deep commitment to the presentation, development, and support of a roster of both established and emerging artists. Its program emphasizes artists engaged with critical theory and art history, with an emphasis on conceptual, video, and performance art. Education and audience engagement is central to our mission. Cristin Tierney Gallery is a member of the ADAA (Art Dealers Association of America).
