Matt Mullican

(American, born 1951)

Matt Mullican is an American contemporary artist. He is best known for combining performance, drawing, printmaking, sculpture, and video as a means of exploring the subjective through the intersection of communal signage and personal semiotics. A part of the “Pictures Generation” alongside Jack Goldstein, Cindy Sherman, Sherrie Levine, and Richard Prince, Mullican decodes images and signs through diagrams, patterns, and written words. The artist has also been known to examine his own subconscious through hypnotism in his quest to understand patterns and how they may be broken. Born on September 18, 1951 in Santa Monica, CA, he received his BFA from the California Institute of the Arts in 1974. Mullican’s works are in the collections of the Art Institute of Chicago, The Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the Cincinnati Art Museum, and the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington, D.C., among others. Mullican lives and works in New York, NY.
