About the artist

Dewey Crumpler (b. 1949, Arkansas) is a Bay Area artist and educator creating surreal experiences that merge traditional painting techniques with video, mixed media and sculpture. His work examines themes of race, capitalism, and the history of oppression, which continue to transcend boundaries. Crumpler has long been preoccupied with how objects serve as sites for exploring what it means to be Black, shedding light on the aesthetic freedom that contributes to Black liberation.
