ARTIST STATEMENT JAMES DUPREE
I recently moved my studio from Philadelphia to New Hope and I am looking forward to the excitement of exhibiting at the A-Space Gallery at New Hope Arts for the next four months. I will showcase /highlight artworks from my private collection. In 1977, the year after graduate school, I decided I would only make artwork that reflected my life. The artwork displayed do just that: they explore my many life experiences, and reflect my concepts, experimental techniques, visual life experiences, mixed media installations, murals, portraits, and commissioned works. I realize that life is like a tree, growing and expanding. I work in series, with the ideas expanding and growing.
I am a contemporary working artist and retired college professor. My art career spans 50 years. My career started in 1969 and I am still actively involved in the making of art.
I hold a BFA from Columbus College of Art and Design and an MFA from the University of Pennsylvania. In addition, I attended the Pa Academy of Fine Arts and the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture. After my foundation year, I started out in the illustration department at CCAD but then transferred over into fine arts studying drawing, painting, ceramics, sculpture, and print making.
I have five pieces in the permanent collection at the Philadelphia Museum of Art and in museums and corporate and private collections both nationally and internationally.
