WELCOME OUR NEWEST BLUE HOUSE ARTIST RESIDENT
BRYAN PETTIGREWWe are thrilled to welcome Bryan Pettigrew as the newest artist in our residency! Bryan, an interdisciplinary artist hailing from Texas and now based in Austin, brings a wealth of experience and creativity. With a BFA in Drawing & Painting from the University of North Texas and an MFA in Studio Art from The City College of New York, his artistic journey has been dynamic and inspiring.
Bryan's early dream of becoming a cartoonist has evolved into a unique practice of creating assemblage sculptures and performances, incorporating unusual and enigmatic objects. Currently, he is delving into themes of dreams and Afrofuturism, showcasing his continuous artistic growth. Welcome, Bryan! Join us Saturday July 27th for a special event with Bryan at the Blue House. Details below. |
