Information provided by the Artist: Suzanne Adan (born 1946) creates personal universes that combine fantasy, popular culture, and autobiography. A native Californian, Adan was born in Woodland and raised in nearby Yolo. She earned her BA and MA from CSU Sacramento in 1969 and 1971, respectively. At Sac State she met her husband, sculptor Michael Stevens, and became influenced by instructor Jim Nutt, a member of Chicago’s Hairy Who. Nutt and his wife, artist Gladys Nilsson, along with a host of others in Sacramento, Davis, and the San Francisco Bay Area, caused Adan to appreciate the place that humor could have in art, as did her experience exhibiting at the trailblazing Candy Store Gallery in Folsom. Today, with some fifty-five years of making art behind her, she continues to create surreal assemblies of whimsical characters, toys, and animals that simultaneously disturb, charm, and disrupt, all through Adan’s beautifully fastidious approach and signature swatches of paint. Suzanne Adan's work is represented in the Crocker's permanent collection.
