Brent Harris

1987 - 1989
Brent Harris was one of the first studio artists in the Gertrude Studio Program, from 1987 – 1989, and has since forged a significant career spanning three decades, methodically evolving a practice of unique distinction. Harris has gained renown for both shifting and revisiting his artistic language with prescient surety. Working principally in painting and printmaking, Harris has defined an artistic practice of idiosyncratic aesthetic trajectory that is distinct in its progression and capacity for historical reflection, combining motifs and symbolism relating to religion and mythology in his distinctive, graphically bold, yet nuanced style. Harris contributed the 2020 Gertrude Edition.
