Alex Olson was born in 1978. Olson lives and works in Los Angeles, CA where she attended the California Institute of the Arts. She also studied at Harvard University. Her paintings, often rendered with graphic and gestural qualities, have been shown in solo shows in Los Angeles, Chicago, New York, and London and are found in the LACMA, Hammer Museum, Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago, and Walker Art Center collections.
