Meet Keanu Reeves’ Longtime Girlfriend, Alexandra Grant

Although she has been an L.A.-based artist for many years, Alexandra Grant’s childhood took her all over the place, including France, Mexico, and Spain. “I grew up in part in Mexico City, Washington, D.C., and Paris, moving between languages and cultures,” she shared with LA Weekly. “Los Angeles felt like home from the moment I first arrived in 1995.”

As an artist, she works with a variety of mediums, including painting, sculpture, film, and photography, to investigate the relationship between language and visuals. Her work has been shown in many galleries and museums, including the Museum of Contemporary Art and the Lowell Ryan Projects gallery, both in Los Angeles. She’s also collaborated with many notable figures, including the feminist philosopher Hélène Cixous, the author Micheal Joyce, and, of course, Keanu Reeves.

After Grant and Reeves worked together on the books “Ode to Happiness” and “Shadows,” the two co-founded a publishing house called X Artists’ Books in 2017. Separately, Grant is also the founder of the grantLOVE Project, an LLC that sells goods and collaborates with artists to help support and raise money for non-profit art organizations.
