A highly skilled 'painter's painter', Marlene Dumas comments through her work on the state of painting today while asking what it means to be a woman working within the predominantly male genre of expressionist art. She has exhibited since the late 1970s and her work has been included in major solo exhibitions at the Museum fur Moderne Kunst, Frankfurt (1998), and the Tate Gallery, London (1996), as well as in numerous group exhibitions, including, most recently, the 51st Venice Biennale (2005)

Marlene Dumas is represented by Zeno X Gallery, Antwerp; Paul Andriesse, Amsterdam; Frith Street Gallery, London; Produzentengalerie, Hamburg;
