Join us for a free public lecture from visiting artist Daniel Bozhkov. Bozhkov is a Bulgarian-born artist based in New York City. He employs a variety of media, from fresco to performance and video, and works with professionals from different fields to activate the public space. He enters the worlds of genetic science, department mega-stores, and world-famous tourist-sites, as an amateur intruder/visitor who also functions as a producer of new strains of meaning into seemingly closed systems.
Daniel Bozhkov is a recipient of the Rome Prize from the American Academy and grants from the Foundation for Contemporary Art, Andy Warhol Foundation, and the National Endowment for the Arts. His work has been presented at MoMA P.S.1, Queens Museum, New York; Santa Monica Museum of Art, Los Angeles, as well as in international exhibitions such as the 33rd São Paulo Biennial in Brazil, 6th Liverpool Biennial of Contemporary Art, United Kingdom; 6th Mercosul Biennial in Porto Alegre, Brazil; 9th Istanbul Biennal in Turkey, and 1st Moscow Bienniale of Contemporary Art, Russia.
Daniel Bozhkov is an Associate Professor of Art at Hunter College, New York City, and has taught as a Lecturer at Columbia University and Yale University School of Art, as well as a Visiting Critic at the Rijksakademie in Amsterdam, Netherlands, and the Royal Institute of Art in Stockholm, Sweden
