Thom Merrick (born 1963) is an American contemporary artist. [1]
Merrick was born in Sacramento, California in 1963. [2] [3] He attended the San Francisco Art Institute.
Merrick is known for creating with industrial materials and simplified forms, or whatever material was on hand. [4] [5] From the late 1980s to the late 1990s, he created his works on-site, in situ, in the exhibition hall. These works aim to break down the boundary of artistic identity, production, and requisite classifications.
He became known during the 1980s and was represented by pioneer gallerists Colin de Land (b. 1955–2003) and Pat Hearn (b. 1955 – d. 2000) in New York City. He exhibited throughout Europe, represented by the minimalist art dealer and collector Rolf Ricke, in Cologne, and by the conceptual, Galerie Susanna Kulli, in St. Gallen, among others.[ citation needed ]
In 1998 he exhibited at MoMA PS1 in the exhibition Construction drawings. [6]
His work is included in the collections of the Museum für Moderne Kunst, Frankfurt, [7] and the Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein. [8]
