Sanford Biggers Biography

Sanford Biggers, a native of L.A. who now lives and works in NYC, makes art that combines cinema, video, installation, sculpture, drawing, original music, and performance. He purposefully confuses topics like hip-hop, Buddhism, politics, identity, and art history to create fresh interpretations and connotations for well-established symbols. He creates works as intellectual as beautiful using a syncretic creative method and a multidisciplinary formal procedure. Biggers' contributions to modern culture have been honored with solo shows held both domestically and abroad, most notably at the Brooklyn Museum, the Sculpture Center, and Mass MoCA. He has taken part in prestigious residencies and fellowships at places like the Headlands Center for the Arts in Sausalito, California, the ARCUS Project Foundation in Ibaraki, Japan, the Art in General/Trafo Gallery Eastern European Exchange in Budapest, Hungary, and the Akademie Schloss Solitude in Stuttgart, Germany. He has participated in the Eyebeam Atelier Teaching Residency, the Studio Museum AIR Program, the P.S. 1 International Studio Program, the Socrates Sculpture Park Residency, the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council World Views AIR Program, the Creative Time Global Residency, the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture residency. Installations, movies, and performances by Sanford Biggers have been seen in locations all around the world. Moreover, he has taught in the Sculpture and Expanded Media department at Virginia Commonwealth University. In 2009, he was a visiting scholar at Harvard University's VES Department.
