BIOGRAPHY
S.A. Bachman is an image scavenger and a word detective, a pop-culture eavesdropper and an agitator against injustice, a mass media referee and a cut-and-paste wiz. She is a socially engaged artist, interdisciplinary art educator, and cofounder of the THINK AGAIN collaborative.
Bachman’s photographs and interventionist projects by THINK AGAIN have been exhibited in Antagonisms, Museu d´Art Contemporani de Barcelona; The Anti-War Show: US Interventions From Korea to Iraq, Track16 Gallery; Reactions, Exit Art; Beyond Aesthetics/Artists of Conscience, Alternative Museum; The Persistence of Pop, Rose Art Museum; and Selective Fictions, Grey Art Gallery.
The work of THINK AGAIN is documented in the monograph, A Brief History of Outrage, and texts about the history and projects of the collaboration appeared in Afterimage and Social Text. Bachman’s solo and collaborative work is published in Reframings: New American Feminist Photographies, Graphic Agitation 2, Peace Signs: The Anti-War Movement Illustrated, Artforum, and Aperture.
Her work is in the collections of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Palacio de Bellas Artes (Mexico City), Center for the Study of Political Graphics, Rose Art Museum, New York Public Library, Glasgow Print Studio (Glasgow), and the Bell Telephone Corporation.
