Erin Cosgrove

Erin Cosgrove creates film and multimedia art projects that often inspire film projects and other visual works. Her recent project, Seven Romance Novels, was comprised of seven published satiric romance novels, the first of which, The Baader-Meinhof Affair, was released by Printed Matter, Inc. The Sundance Channel funded her short film, A Heart Lies Beneath. Cosgrove’s work has also been exhibited and screened at such venues as the Brooklyn Museum, the Institute of Contemporary Art in London and Videoframes in Auvergne, France. She is the recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship, a grant from the Jerome Foundation and a Minnesota State Arts Board Fellowship, among others.
