Jordan Kerwick

Jordy Kerwick (b. Melbourne, Australia, 1982) is an artist based in Gaillac, France. Self-taught, Kerwick took up painting in 2016 after working in music. His richly layered paintings and strongly defined visual language quickly came to the attention of galleries and collectors, and his work has been exhibited in solo shows at the Yorkshire Sculpture Park (UK) and Museo Thyssen in Madrid (Spain), as well as in group shows at institutions including LACMA (US) and the Jewish Museum of Australia. Kerwick’s work is in the permanent collections of the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, Madrid, Spain, the Denver Art Museum, Denver, CO, USA, the ICA Miami, Florida, USA, and Fulton Ryder (Richard Prince), among others.
