Juan Logan
Arts/Industry: Foundry, 2004
Juan Logan’s artworks engage subjects relevant to the American experience. At once abstract and representational, his paintings, drawings, sculptures, installations, and videos address the interconnections of race, place, and power. They make visible how hierarchical relations and social stereotypes shape individuals, institutions, and the material and mental landscapes of contemporary life.
His work has been exhibited at SOCO Gallery (NC), Tweed Museum of Art (MN), Lyndon House Arts Center (GA), Gibbes Museum of Art (SC), Mint Museum of Art (NC), Tiger Strikes Asteroid (PA), McColl Center for Visual Arts (NC), and June Kely Gallery (NY), among others. Logan’s works are in private, corporate, and public collections, including the Whitney Museum of American Art (NY), Philadelphia Museum of Art (PA), Gibbes Museum of Art, Baltimore Museum of Art (MD), Memphis Brooks Museum (TN), Zimmerli Museum of Art (NJ), Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art (CO), and the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History and Culture (DC), among others.
His awards include fellowships and residencies at the John Michael Kohler Arts Center’s Arts/Industry at Kohler Co., North Carolina Arts Council, the Mid Atlantic Arts Foundation, the Rutgers Center for Innovative Print and Paper, the Carolina Postdoctoral Scholars Fellowship, and the Phillip Morris Companies.
Logan received an MFA from Maryland Institute College of Art.
