Yvette Drury Dubinsky is an artist based in Truro, Massachusetts, St. Louis and New York who combines drawing, printmaking, alternative-process photography and found objects. A 2009 trip to Syria and Lebanon began a long-running body of work on the Syrian civil war and on displacement, a theme that continues in the salvaged cardboard boxes she has printed, painted, collaged and assembled since the early days of the pandemic.

She has had more than 30 solo exhibitions, among them Here and Gone at the Provincetown Art Association and Museum (2018), five at A.I.R. Gallery in Brooklyn (most recently constructDEconstruct, 2024) and others at Bruno David Gallery since 2007, including Traveling (2023) and RECONSTRUCT (2025). She has also exhibited in Paris, Warsaw and Iga, Japan. Her collage Outer/Under Cape, commissioned by the Provincetown Public Arts Foundation, was installed at MacMillan Pier in 2025.

Her work is in the collections of the Saint Louis Art Museum, the New York Public Library, the National Museum of Modern Art, Tokyo, Yale’s Beinecke Library, the Provincetown Art Association and Museum, the Nevada Art Museum, the Margaret Harwell Art Museum and the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis. Her collaged photographs have also been shown through the State Department’s Art in Embassies program.

Dubinsky has held two residencies at the Cité internationale des arts in Paris, most recently in April 2026. She holds A.B., M.A. and M.F.A. (1990) degrees from Washington University in St. Louis and received the university’s Distinguished Alumni Award in 2009 and the Sam Fox School’s in 2018.
