Patrick Hill (artist)
Patrick Hill (born 1972) is an artist based in Los Angeles.
Hill was born in Michigan. His abstract sculptures juxtapose hard and soft materials and references to Minimalism and the human body.[1] Common materials are wood, stone, steel, fabric dye and glass.[2] Hill also makes paintings on un-primed canvas with oil paint and various organic pigments.[3] He studied with controversial Los Angeles artist, Larry Johnson.
Hill is represented by David Kordansky in Los Angeles; Bortolami Gallery in New York City; The Approach in London; and Almine Rech in Paris and Brussels.
He participated in the 2008 Whitney Biennial.[1]
