| About Me |
For the past twenty years, Michael Joaquin Grey has been creating work that extends and plays with the boundaries of art, science, and media. His investigation centers around the origins of life, language, and form as related to emergent and complex systems. Critical moments in natural phenomenon and culture are objects in his work, as are the prepositional states of change between matter, energy, behavior, and meaning. Grey’s creative dialogue engages pedagogy and the creative limitations of the tools and processes we use to observe, learn, and play with our world. Grey has exhibited and/or is in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art, New York; Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art; Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; The New Museum of Contemporary Art, New York; Museum of Contemporary Art, Miami; Serpentine Gallery, London; Walker Art Center, Minneapolis; Museum of Contemporary Art, San Diego; Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago; Milwaukee Art Museum; Tel Aviv Museum of Art; Norrtalje Konsthall, Sweden; Kunsthalle Loppem, Belgium; Brooke Alexander Editions, New York; Lisson Gallery, London; Barbara Gladstone Gallery, New York; Stuart Regen Gallery, Los Angeles; Gagosian Gallery, New York; and bitforms, New York. His last real job was as a preparator at the University Art Museum, Berkeley from 1986 to 1988. |
