Duncan Rathbun Hannah (August 21, 1952 – June 11, 2022) was an American visual artist and author.

Born in

The Blake School[1] as a boy, and later Bard College, before transferring to the Parsons School of Design, where he graduated in 1975.[2]

Hannah was the author of his memoir 20th Century Boy (2018), sourced from his

Paris Review.[8]

The critic and editor

Phyllis Kind Gallery and the Center Gallery in Chicago;[13] the Daedalus Gallery and the John Oulman Gallery in Minneapolis;[14][15] the Rebecca Hossack Gallery in London;[16] the Pierre Menard Gallery in Cambridge, Massachusetts;[17] and the Semaphore Gallery and Charles Cowles Gallery in New York City;[18][19][20] among other venues.[21][22] Hannah's work is included in the permanent collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.[23][24] “I’ve basically ignored the avant-garde,” Hannah told an interviewer in 2018. “I was surprised by the conformity of the art world."[7]

Hannah also took a turn at acting, appearing in a duo of films by

Deborah Harry (later of Blondie) in Unmade Beds (1976), in which he played a photographer who sees himself as a 1960s Paris gangster,[25] and The Foreigner.[2][26] Hannah also co-starred in Jennifer Montgomery's 1995 film Art for Teachers of Children.[27]

In his later years, Hannah lived and worked in

Brooklyn, New York; and West Cornwall, Connecticut.[28] He died after suffering a heart attack at his home in West Cornwall on June 11, 2022, aged 69.[29][30] At the time of his death, he was married to Megan Wilson.[2]
