Agathe Snow

Agathe Snow (; née Aparru) (born 1976) is a French artist based in Long Island, New York. Before moving to Long Island in 2008, she lived and worked in New York City.

Biography Snow was born in Corsica and moved to New York at age 11. As a professional artist, she is self-taught. One of her most known endeavours was No Need To Worry, The Apocalypse Has Already Happened… at the James Fuentes Gallery in 2007, in which Snow took the starting point of a recently flooded Manhattan as a conceit on which to base a five-week performance and gallery-wide installation, including a sculpture of the belly of a beached whale. Before Dash Snow died on 13 July 2009, according to his obituary in The New York Times, their marriage had ended in divorce. "I invited all of my friends," Snow told Interview magazine in 2015. "It was a sense of New York City after 9/11—we don't know what's going to happen, we're all downtown in Manhattan, we might as well have fun."

Snow's entry to the 2008 Whitney Biennial, held from 9 to 16 March at the Park Avenue Armory annex of the biennial, was "Stamina: Gloria Et Patria", a week-long dance-a-thon.

In 2019, Snow was working with Marianne Vitale on projects including "Double Vision" including paintings and drawings, some made with food items like mustard and coffee grounds.
