SAIC Alumnus Joshua Mosley at Venice BiennaleJoshua Mosley, an alumnus of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, is presently showing his digital art work, dread, at the Venice Biennale's 52nd International Art Exhibition.
He was selected to show in the Padiglione Italia at the Giardini by the Biennale's first director from the United States, Robert Storr.
Storr, also an alumnus of the School of the Art Institute (MFA 1978), served as a senior curator in the Museum of Modern Art.
Mosley is represented by Chicago dealer Donald Young, who is showing his work at Art Basel, which opened June 12.
Mosley studied Painting and Drawing, Art and Technology, and Film and Video at SAIC.
"Josh Mosley was always an innovator, pushing the boundaries of what was possible in animation," says Carol Becker, Dean of Faculty at SAIC.
"The School curriculum fit his needs because he wanted to work across disciplines; he found faculty who supported him with a mixture of technical, philosophical, and theoretical knowledge.
The School gave him permission to be an artist, an intellectual, and a technology wizard all at once, allowing him to combine forms and levels of reality, without feeling he had to choose between them."
