Biography
Joshua Holzmann, a native of Milwaukee, is an artist living and working in Los Angeles, CA. His primary mediums are paint and collage. His art practice employs paint as content and the complicated history that is tied to the medium through the lens of an African American male. As a conscientious millennial the artist struggles with putting more objects into the world. To mitigate these concerns Holzmann uses repurposed materials and items from his family's daily consumption as the raw materials for his paintings.
Holzmann holds a BFA from Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, CA and an MFA from the University of California, Riverside. He has exhibited at the Riverside Art Museum, Harriet and Kern Gallery, Nan Rae Gallery at Woodbury University, Barbara and Art Culver Center for the Arts, Phyllis Gill Gallery at the University of California Riverside and ArtCenter DTLA. Holzmann is an Assistant Professor of Art at Art Center College of Design.
