Tavares Strachan

BFA 2003

Conceptual artist

Themes of visibility and invisibility run through Strachan’s practice, as manifested in his endeavor to lift up the contributions of marginalized figures in history who have been left out of official records. Strachan uses the Encyclopedia as a point of departure for pieces in other media. Through a rare combination of historical and scientific inquiry made visible through an artistic practice that reaches across media, Strachan is creating work that inspires curiosity and pushes the limits of what is possible in art. His work has been exhibited in solo and group exhibitions at various national and international venues, including the Frye Art Museum, Seattle; Baltimore Museum of Art; Prospect.3, New Orleans; the Venice Biennale; the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; and the Institute of Contemporary Art, Philadelphia.
