Jeremy Lundquist

Jeremy has been teaching at SAIC since 2006 and is currently an Adjunct Assistant Professor in the Printmedia department in addition to working in Academic Advising as a Faculty Advisor.
His work in print, drawing, photography, installation, and cut and collaged paper examines and organizes decay, resulting in a body of work questioning contemporary notions of progress and cleanliness by presenting images and texts of loss and disillusion.  Jeremy’s areas of research include museum and collection studies, modes of display, print ephemera, tourism, religion, labor relations, erasure, mapping, senses of place, land use and linguistics. He has been an artist-in-residence at Ox-Bow, Harold Arts, Spudnik Press, Kala Art Institute and the Vermont Studio Center. As one of the co-founders of Drawn Lots, a collaborative artist group and publishing entity, he participated in a residency and exhibition at Harvard University’s Fisher Museum at the Harvard Forest.  His work has also been exhibited at Highpoint Center for Printmaking, the Chicago Cultural Center, Gallery 400 at the University of Illinois – Chicago, the Minnesota Center for Book Arts, Heaven Gallery, Lloyd Dobler Gallery, and additional venues nationally and internationally.

Project Statement:

Jeremy Lundquist’s work in print, drawing, installation, and cut and collaged paper examines and organizes decay, specifically, the mundane and outmoded objects of Middle America His time at Spudnik he utilized the subtle line work of etching and soft ground. Each state of etching was printed from the same plate and the image and text scrapped out to create a ghost image and a new print. His suite of prints resulted in a body of work questioning contemporary notions of progress and cleanliness by presenting images of loss and disillusion/ dissolution. Upon his completion of his time at Spudnik Lundquist presented the work he made in a solo show.
