Calvin Marcus
Calvin Marcus (born 1988 in San Francisco, lives in Los Angeles) works serially, creating stylistically distinct bodies of work that probe unsettling subjects, both psychic and social, across a variety of media. For each new suite, Marcus develops unique material processes. His exhibitions confront viewers with tightly-constructed panoramas and maze-like displays, heightening his works' uncanny effect.
