Exhibitions & Fairs

Andrew Chapman was born in San Francisco and works and resides in Los Angeles, California. He received his MFA from Stanford University and his BFA from California College of the Arts in San Francisco, CA. Chapman’s work, largely rooted in painting, deals with the act of image making through varied and meticulous means. His approach to abstraction belies the realism of representation. While simultaneously describing an idiosyncratic breadth of subject matter and surfaces with uncanny familiarity, the works reside on the periphery of what may be deemed ‘of this world’.

He has shown work at a number of galleries and educational institutions including solo shows at Et al. and California College of the Arts in San Francisco. Group exhibitions include Petra Pibeau, New York, Daniela Elbahara, Mexico City, Portmanteau, Geneva, Switzerland, Yerbea Buena Center for the Arts, and The Popular Workshop, San Francisco. He was awarded the Peter S. Reed Foundation Individual Artist Grant and Jack & Gertrude Murphy Fellowship and the Edwin Anthony & Adelaine Bordeaux Cadogan Fellowship in the Fine Arts.
