Allison Smith takes an expansive view of sculpture, combining social practice, performance, and traditional crafts to examine how American history has been constructed and how it may be revised, retold, and reinterpreted. She has exhibited at MoMA PS1, SFMOMA, MASS MoCA, the Aldrich and Tang museums, among others, and her works are held in the collections of the Whitney, LACMA, Saatchi Gallery London, and many others worldwide.
