GRAHAM COLLINS

TABLE

The work of Graham Collins incorporates a wide

array of disciplines, from woodworking and

sculpting through to painting and collage. His

primary output is abstract paintings inspired by a

variety of cultural references. His focus is on the

material conditions of the artwork’s production, and

he routinely incorporates idiosyncratic methods of

fabrication and highly charged materials such as

reclaimed wood, found objects, ceramics, cast

plastic, generic monochrome painted canvases,

automotive window tinting and DIY car paints.

Collins was born in 1980 in Washington DC. He

currently lives and works in New York, NY and

holds a BFA from the Corcoran School of Art and

an MFA from Bard College. His work has been

shown at the North Carolina Museum of Art, Almine

Rech Gallery, Brussels, Mitchell Innes and Nash,

New York, Galleri Jacob Bjorn, Aarhus, Denmark

and Halsey McKay Gallery, New York. A show of

new work will open at Steve Turner Gallery in Los

Angeles in February 2019.
