Join us for a lecture featuring internationally renowned artist and 2022 Stand Out Prints exhibition juror William Villalongo.
William was born in Hollywood, FL, and raised in Bridgeton, NJ. He received his BFA from The Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art and his MFA from Tyler School of Art at Temple University. He now lives and works in Brooklyn, NY.
Villalongo's creative output involves studio practice, writing, and curatorial projects. His figurative paintings on paper and sculptures are concerned with representing the Black subject against notions of race and explore metaphors for mythology, way-finding, and liberation. Critically acclaimed curatorial projects such as American Beauty at Susan Inglett Gallery in 2013 and Black Pulp! Touring nationally between 2016-2018 explores the intersections of politics, history, and art. Villalongo is the recipient of the prestigious Louis Comfort Tiffany Award and the Joan Mitchell Foundation Painters & Sculptor's Grant.
