Sally Egbert (b. 1958, Bay Shore, NY) is a New York based artist. For over three decades, she has been making paintings, drawings, and installations. Her work is primarily abstract, loosely based on observations from nature. Egbert studied at SUNY, New Paltz. She is a recipient of grants from the Pollock-Krasner Foundation, The Gottlieb Foundation, and The New York State Foundation for the Arts. Egbert's work has been exhibited and collected internationally. Her work can be found in several permanent collections including the Tucson Museum of Art, Arizona, Progressive Insurance Collection, and the Colby College Museum of Art, Waterville ME, gift of the Alex Katz Foundation. Reviewing Egbert's work in Art in America, Eileen Myles notes, "Sally Egbert's oil paintings are as hypnotic as aquariums...(her) chief concern seems to be pinpointing distinctions to name the moment in color and space." Glenn O’Brien, in a catalog essay, describes Egbert's work: "These magical tableaux conjure dream states outside of experience and history, but they seem to evoke not what has happened, but what will happen--a balance of a state that we have experienced and one that we are moving toward with the attraction of sublime unknowns."
