Todd Norsten

 

Image of Todd Norsten at work in Highpoint’s Studio.

Todd Norsten is a painter who "has cast a wide net in gathering and archiving found, visual ephemera as he moves through this increasingly mad world and in doing so, brings all of the absurdity, disgust, poeticism, frustration, and humor in his intellectual and emotional arsenal together with his inescapable drive to be a maker of things." - Betsy Carpenter, independent curator

The artist has had solo exhibitions at galleries worldwide including Midway Contemporary Art (Minneapolis), Federica Schiavo (Rome, Italy), and Adams & Ollman (Oregon) among others. His work resides in numerous public and private collections, including the British Museum, the Walker Art Center, and the Minneapolis Institute of Arts.

Norsten (b. 1967) lives and works in Minneapolis and is represented by Weinstein Gallery (Minneapolis), Adams & Ollman (Portland), and Federica Schiavo (Milan & Rome).
