Rini Price (March 9, 1941 – October 19, 2019) was an American painter and visual artist from New Mexico. Her work is included in the Albuquerque Museum of Art and History’s permanent collection and the Capitol Art Collection at the Roundhouse in Santa Fe,[1] in addition to many private collections. Although she is generally identified as an abstract or figurative artist, her body of work defies definition,[2] and she never considered herself a member of any school or movement. She completed thousands of drawings and hundreds of paintings during her career. She remained reclusive in that she voluntarily removed herself from academic art and the commercial gallery system, showing only occasionally in one-woman and group exhibitions.[3] She died on October 19, 2019.
