Josh Brand (born 1980) is an artist who lives and works in New York.[1]

Background[edit]

Brand was born in Elkhorn, Wisconsin, US in 1980. He undertook his BFA at The School of The Art Institute of Chicago, graduating in 2002.[2]

He undertook his BFA and MFA in Fine Art at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago between 1971-1978.[citation needed] Brand had a darkroom in his family basement, and as a teenager he would experiment for hours with the chemistry of photography, later working as a professional printer. His process-based photographic ‘objects’ are often made as the result of a physically manipulated, completely camera-less procedure.[3][4][5]
