③ Artist:

Seth Bogart

Seth Bogart is known for creating ceramic book sculptures, to-scale and oversized reproductions of both cult finds and volumes by literary icons, including Joan Didion, Gary Indiana and Susan Sontag. Emerging out of the queer punk scene in the Bay Area in the late 1990s, the artist’s practice encompasses music, ceramics, painting, performance and clothing design. Bogart has established himself as a strong voice in the presentation and preservation of the historical arcana of queer culture—while exploring an aesthetic that embraces camp, beauty, poignancy and excess in equal measure.

Seth Bogart was born in Tucson, Arizona in 1980. 

Exhibitions that have shown Bogart’s work have taken place at: FIERMAN in New York City; Deitch in New York City; Participant INC in New York City; Artist Curated Projects in Los Angeles, California; One Archives Plummer Park Gallery in Los Angeles, California; MoCA in Los Angeles, California; 356 S Mission in Los Angeles, California; Soccer Club Club in Chicago, Illinois; the Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit in Michigan; among others. 

In 2016, Bogart presented special multimedia performances at La Gaite Lyrique in Paris, France; the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, MoCA and the Skirball Cultural Institute, all in Los Angeles, California; among others. 

Also in 2016, Bogart released his first solo album as a musical artist. Bogart’s second solo album, Men On The Verge of Nothing, was released in 2020. The artist has also toured the world as the front person for the band Hunx & His Punx. 

Bogart lives and works in Los Angeles, California.
