Jenny Scobel, b. 1955 in Orrville, Ohio (US), lives and works in New York (US).
Jenny Scobel’s works are executed in graphite and oil paint on prepared wooden panels or vellum. These portraits range from widely known figures such as Michelle Pfeiffer and Virginia Woolf to anonymous women cut out from printed media or photographs. Her subjects seem deformed, however, because the proportions of head and body are not always compatible. The same model is often reintroduced in a slightly altering but ever-prominent decor. These intimate backgrounds fill the scene with an uncanny and unsettling feel, also because the figures and their environment seem to stem from a different period of time. Scobel’s paintings allude to beauty and its underlying calamity. The image will never reveal its true story.
Jenny Scobel has had solo exhibitions at Molloy College (Rockville Centre ), Galerie der Stadt Backnang and Wake Forest University (Winston-Salem).
Her work has featured in group shows at The Drawing Center (New York), Fridericianum (Kassel), Overbeck Gesellschaft (Lübeck), Museum Dr. Guislain (Ghent), Lyman Allyn Art Museum (New London), Worcester Art Museum, Islip Museum, Molloy College (Rockville Centre) and Cleveland State University.
Jenny Scobel joined the gallery in 2002.
