Yvette Drury Dubinsky is known for her innovative combinations of drawing, print, alternative photography, and found objects. In her latest series of prints, Dubinsky meditates on the change and destruction occurring now in Syria, a place where she traveled just before the beginning of the ongoing civil war, and where she is still in contact with friends. She makes collages and installations, skillfully integrating works on paper using a round format, with silhouettes’ figures within a map, and a sociopolitical relevance. Her artwork draws on her observations about the ongoing refugee’s displacement around the world.
Yvette Drury Dubinsky is based in Truro, MA, St. Louis, MO and New York City. She studied at the Art Institute of Chicago, before attending what is now the Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts, Washington University in St. Louis, where she received an M.F.A. in 1990. In 2018, she had a solo exhibition at the Provincetown Art Association and Museum. Her work is in the public collections of the St. Louis Art Museum, The Provincetown Art Association and Museum, The Margaret Harwell Museum, The Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis, and has been a part of the Art and Embassies program of the United States Department of State.
