Joshua Meyer’s dazzlingly complex, impressionistic paintings resist the idea that there can be any such thing as objective reality. Figures and forms instead reveal themselves as filtered through prismatic accumulations of thoughts, feelings, experiences. Each painting’s single, central human subject dematerializes from a dense network of brushstrokes into abstract pictorial space, inviting the audience to play an active role in reconstructing the progressively open images. //CV// EDUCATION 1996 Yale University, New Haven, CT, BA with Distinction in Art 1995 Bezalel Academy of Art and Design, Jerusalem, Israel, CertificateSOLO EXHIBITIONS 2023 Eight Approaches, Hebrew College, Boston, MA2022 Eight Approaches, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, MA Passages, Rice/Polak Gallery, Provincetown, MA2020 Chronicity, Rice/Polak Gallery, Provincetown, MA2019 Courting Incoherence, Lyons Wier Gallery, New York, NY2018 Many Distances, Rice/Polak Gallery, Provincetown, MA2016 Seek My Face: The Art of Joshua Meyer 2000-2016, UCLA Dortort Center, Los Angeles, CA Building Up, Rice/Polak Gallery, Provincetown, MA Towards, Matter & Light Gallery, Boston, MA2014 Glimpses, Rice/Polak Gallery, Provincetown, MA2013 Rustle, Sparkle, Flutter, Float, Dolby Chadwick Gallery, San Francisco, CA Paintings, Argazzi Art, Lakeville, CT2012 Pauses, Rice/Polak Gallery, Provincetown, MA2010 Everything in Between, Dolby Chadwick Gallery, San Francisco, CA Intermingle, Rice/Polak Gallery, Provincetown, MA2009 Scattered Syllables, Dolby Chadwick Gallery, San Francisco, CA2008 Wandering and Wondering, Nesto Gallery, Milton Academy, Milton, MA2007 Lowe Gallery, Atlanta, GA Philadelphia Museum of Jewish Art, Philadelphia, PA Lowe Gallery, Santa Monica, CA 38 Cameron Gallery, Cambridge, MA2006 Becoming, The Bronfman Center at NYU, New York, NY Becoming, The Joseph Slifka Center at Yale, New Haven, CT2004 Tohu vaVohu, Hebrew College, Goldman Gallery, Newton, MA. 38 Cameron Gallery, Cambridge, MA2003 Courting Incoherence, The Joseph Slifka Center at Yale, New Haven, CT2001 Art as Prayer, Prayer as Art, Jewish Community Center, New Haven, CT Front Street, Salem, MA 2000 Front Street, Salem, MA1999 Gallery 57, Cambridge, MA1996 The Joseph Slifka Center at Yale, New Haven, CTGROUP EXHIBITIONS 2023 Reflections, Citron Gallery, Asheville, NC Rice/Polak Summer exhibit, Provincetown, MA2022 The Figure, Site:Brooklyn Gallery, curated by Andi Campognone, Brooklyn, NY Rice/Polak Summer exhibit, Provincetown, MA Remember, Renew, Reimagine, Hebrew College Centennial Exhibition, curated by Deborah Feinstein, Wellesley, MA2021 ArtWorcester Biennial, curated by Beth C.
