New Orleans native Katrina Andry received an MFA (2010) in Printmaking. In her work she confronts issues of race, gender, bias, and privilege, as well as stereotypical representations of Black Americans. Her candid depictions of these stereotypes provoke viewers to consider the unjust nature of clichés and social norms and how privilege arises from the perpetuation of these stereotypes. Art in Print described Andry as one of the top 50 fine-art printmakers working today (September 2012). Her solo and group exhibitions include Over There and Here Is Me and Me, Halsey Institute of Contemporary Art, The College of Charleston (2019); Changing Course: Reflections on New Orleans Histories, New Orleans Museum of Art (2018); and Perceptions of Otherness, The Hammonds House Museum, Atlanta (2017), among others.
