Andrew Schoultz Mar 10, 2022

Show notes

Andrew Schoultz (1975, Milwaukee, WI) lives and works in Los Angeles, California. He received his BFA in Illustration from the Academy of Arts University in San Francisco, CA. Schoultz has participated in several international solo and group exhibitions, including Joshua Liner Gallery NY, Galerie Droste, Wuppertal, GER or Galerie LJ in Paris, FR. His works are represented in important collections such as the Los Angeles County Museum (LACMA), the Berkeley Art Museum or the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, CA. Schoultz utilizes a signature style of densely-packed, meticulously-rendered motifs – archaic war machines, the iconography of the American Dollar bill, and cataclysmic events, both natural and man-made – to represent the turmoil of the contemporary world. He makes historic references to antique etchings and Persian miniature painting as well as to William T. Wiley, M. C. Escher and Mission School street art. But Schoultz’s art is very much his own – an intense vision of a planet threatened by overcrowding and overconsumption and societies under siege by the governments that are there to protect them.

Her work has been written about in the New York Times, ArtForum, and Frieze, among other publications.
