Caitlin Rueter

www.caitlinrueter.com

Caitlin Rueter was born in Toronto, Canada. She received her BA from McGill University and studied at Ontario College of Art & Design before moving to the United States in 2002. There, she received a BFA from Lyme Academy College of Fine Art and, in 2009, her MFA from Parsons the New School for Design. "Each project begins as an exercise in learning a new history. Coming to the United States as an adult, I am free to learn its history less conventionally than the way I learned Canadian history as a schoolgirl. Chasing the anecdotal and sometimes the apocryphal, I am as much interested in the way that I gather the information as I am in the information gathered." Caitlin Rueter's work is exhibited internationally. She lives and works in New York City.
