Sarah Stolar (b. 1974, Chicago, IL; she/her) is an interdisciplinary artist living in Santa Fe, New Mexico. The breadth of her work includes painting, drawing, multimedia installation, film, video, and performance art. Rooted in a 30-year investigation of the feminine psychological narrative, common threads in her work include loss of innocence, sexuality, power, death, spirituality, and identity. Sarah is the daughter of artist and educator Merlene Schain (1948-2022), and a descendant of 19th-century German painter Adolph von Menzel and Rookwood Pottery master potter John von Menzel of the American Arts and Crafts Movement. She grew up in her mother’s art studio and award-winning art school Schain Studios in Cincinnati, and holds a BFA in Painting from the Art Academy of Cincinnati and an MFA in New Genres from the San Francisco Art Institute. Her work has exhibited across the United States and internationally with solo exhibitions at the New Mexico Museum of Art, Harwood Museum of Art in Taos, BGMoCA in Montevideo, and the School of Visual Art in New York City. She is an internationally award-winning filmmaker, including Best Experimental Film at Synergy Film Festival, New York City, and finalist for the Andy Warhol Award for Best Experimental Film in the US. Sarah also works collaboratively with notable artists, including Guillermo Gómez-Peña, Annie Sprinkle, Beth Stephens, and Linda Mary Montano. She was Annie and Beth's costume designer for six years, and exhibited and performed with them at numerous venues, including documenta 14 and the 53rd Venice Biennale in the Fear Society Pavilion. Specializing in large-scale figurative oil painting, she recently portrayed Balitrónica Gómez of La Pocha Nostra, Jessica Blinkhorn, and Lucy Lippard. Sarah has been featured in multiple media outlets including Yale University Radio Archive, Fifty Feminist States, The Nation Magazine, Hyperallergic, Southwest Contemporary, and CNN Style. A committed educator for over fifteen years, Sarah Stolar is currently the Chair of the Department of Fine Arts, Film and Digital Media at the University of New Mexico - Taos.
