Evan Colbert is an artist of the information age and an accomplished printmaker who has printed and self-published many of his own prints. He has an inventive and unorthodox approach to materials and techniques for executing his paintings and prints.
“In my recent lithographs I employ various techniques to create dynamic and visually satisfying artworks drawn from sometimes disparate sources: found materials featuring grids, patterns, arrays of dots or other shapes, color relationships that I find satisfying or harmonious, and inspiration from previous works and experiments. I am seeking an interplay between harmony and discord, order and spontaneity, flatness and depth, complexity and simplicity.”
Evan Colbert received a BFA degree from Metropolitan State College of Denver in 2003. He has exhibited his work in solo and group exhibitions at the Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art, CO; the Arvada Center for Visual Arts, CO; the Detroit Museum of New Art, MI and others.
His work is in the collections of the Arkansas Art Center, Little Rock; US Department of State, Washington, DC; Ericksson Radiotelecommunications, Stockholm, Sweden; the Auraria Center for Photography, Denver, CO and others.
