Thomas Eggerer
Trained as a painter at the Art Academy in Munich, Thomas Eggerer stepped away from painting to join the New York collective Group Material. He has since returned to painting, drawing, and collage, and his works often portray figures in an abstract, surreal landscape, or set against dominating architecture or magazine cutouts. He has also been a professor of Visual and Environmental Studies at Harvard and taught at Bard College.
Thomas Eggerer has had solo exhibitions at Galerie Bucholz, Cologne, Germany (2018); Maureen Paley, London, UK (2015); Richard Telles, Los Angeles, CA (2014); Frans Hals Museum, Haarlem, The Netherlands (2008); Kunstverein Braunschweig, Germany, (2003); and the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art, Hartford, CT (2002).
