Josephine Halvorson makes art from direct observation, foregrounding the firsthand experience of noticing, describing, and learning from the physical world. She works primarily in painting, but also in sculpture and printmaking. She received her B.F.A. at The Cooper Union and her M.F.A. at Columbia University, with additional studies at Yale Norfolk. Since 2016, she has been Professor of Art and Chair of Graduate Studies in Painting at Boston University.<\/p>\n

In 2021, Halvorson was awarded a John Simon Guggenheim Fellowship. She is also the recipient of international residencies and fellowships, including the U.S. Fulbright to Vienna, Austria, and the Harriet Hale Woolley Award at the Fondation des \u00c9tats-Unis in Paris, France. In 2014-15, she was the first American \u201cpensionnaire\u201d at the French Academy in Rome at the Villa Medici.<\/p>\n

Halvorson’s work has been exhibited internationally and is represented by Sikkema Malloy Jenkins, NY, and Peter Freeman, Paris. Selected recent exhibitions include: Southeastern Center for Contemporary Art, North Carolina; Storm King Art Center, New York; Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston, and the 2019 Havana Biennial. In 2021-22, she had a solo exhibition at the Georgia O\u2019Keeffe Museum in Santa Fe, NM, where she was the inaugural artist in residence. Halvorson\u2019s work and practice have been written about extensively, and she is a subject of Art21\u2019s documentary series New York Close Up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
