Gretchen Andrew (b. 1988, Los Angeles) hacks systems of power with art, code, and glitter. Trained in classical oil painting through a five-year apprenticeship with Billy Childish, she merges traditional techniques with technologies including AI, search engine manipulation, and robotics. Her Facetune Portraits series (critiques digitally enforced ideals of beauty) was unanimously acquired by the Whitney Museum of American Art in 2025. Other institutional collections include 21c Museum Hotel, RFC Art Collection, Francisco Carolinum Linz, and the Monterey Museum of Art. Gretchen’s work has been featured at the Tate Modern, V&A Museum, National Gallery X London, and The Photographer’s Gallery London.
