THOMAS BARGER | CHAIR
September 8 - October 11, 2024
Thomas Barger is an artist living and working in Brooklyn, New York. Barger is originally from a rural cattle farm in Illinois. Like many transplants his move to NYC was motivated by necessity. Barger came to New York in order to access his own identity at a distance from his rural, conservative, religious background. Amidst this new chosen environment, Barger’s work has been a process of emotional, intellectual, and spiritual exploration grounded in craft, narrative, and humor. Thomas Barger studied Architecture at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
