Comments Off on Derrick Adams

Derrick Adams is a Brooklyn–based, multidisciplinary artist whose practice is rooted in deconstructivist philosophies, such as the fragmentation and manipulation of structure and surface, and the marriage of complex and improbable forms. Through these techniques, Adams examines the force of popular culture and the media on the perception and construction of self-image. Adams received his MFA from Columbia University, BFA from Pratt Institute, and is an alumni of the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture, and the Sharpe-Walentas Studio Program. He is a recipient of the Joyce Alexander Wein Artist Prize, Louis Comfort Tiffany Award, S.J. Weiler Award, and Agnes Martin Fellowship.  Adams’ work is in the permanent collections of Studio Museum in Harlem, Metropolitan Museum of Art, and Whitney Museum of American Art, among others.
