Artist Registry
The White Columns Curated Artist Registry is an online platform for emerging and under-recognized artists to share images and information about their respective practices. The Registry seeks to create a context for artists who have yet to benefit from wider critical, curatorial or commercial support. To be eligible, artists cannot be affiliated with a commercial gallery in New York City.

RESUME
Lanie Gannon is a visual artist who explores the dimensional possibilities of paper and paint through sculptures that engage with space, tension, and architectural form. Her suspended paper sculptures examine inner frameworks and support systems, drawing parallels between architectural and skeletal structures.
In January 2026, her work will be featured in In Her Place at the Frist Museum of Art in Nashville. Currently, she is exhibiting in the CODA Museum Paper 2025 Biennial in Apeldoorn, Netherlands. Recent residencies include the Kimmel Harding Nelson Center for the Arts in Nebraska and Moulin à Nef in France (spring 2025), as well as Millay Arts in New York (2024) and La Napoule Art Foundation in France (2024). She also co-exhibited Sibling Revelry with her brother at Zeitgeist Gallery in late 2024.
Lanie’s interest in sculptural paper forms began during her time as a Visiting Artist at the American Academy in Rome (2019). Her other residencies include Byrdcliffe in New York (2023) and The Hambidge Center in Georgia (2022).
Lanie is a recipient of the National Endowment for the Arts Visual Artist Fellowship (1988), Tennessee Arts Commission/Owens-Corning Visual Arts Fellowship (1994), and Tennessee Arts Commission Individual Artist Fellowship (2000). She taught sculpture at Belmont University for 18 years and has spent three decades creating installations for children’s hospitals and schools.
