Graham Nickson

Graham Nickson was born and educated in England and has lived in the United States since 1976. He is a Prix de Rome winner and a Harkness Fellow, and his work is included in the Museum of Modern Art, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Fogg Art Museum, and the Neuberger Museum, among many other private and public collections. He is director of the New York Studio School of Drawing, Painting, and Sculpture. For nearly three decades his art has explored an ambiguous world of interiors and broad beaches populated by introspective figures, in canvases and monumental charcoal drawings informed equally by everyday experience, obedience to ideal geometric relationships, and a sense of the uncanny. The photographs of Graham Nickson's drawings in this issue are by James Dee.
