Bill Schwarz emerged from NYC's East Village art scene of the 1980’s, and participated as a founding member of the 10th Street artist run Pompeii gallery.
He had solo exhibitions with galleries run by Stephanie Theodore, Philippe Briet and John Gibson – and has exhibited with gallerists including Colin de Land, Daniel Newburg, Gavin Brown. Bill’s work has also been selected for multiple projects organized by curator Robert Nickas.
With strong interests in non-objective abstraction, pop, process art, minimalism, post-minimalism and a belief in the eminence of conceptual art, Schwarz has consistently employed appropriation and borrowed cross disciplines to inform and conceptualize the formalist codes within his painted and found object art making practice.
Schwarz now resides in rural Bucks County Pa. and since 2013 has maintained a working studio at The Loom in the Port Richmond section of Philadelphia. He has participated in Philadelphia’s Open Studio program (POST) for the past four years presenting his new artworks as well as custom fabricated furniture. undefined
