BIO:
DAVID KROOS
Minnesota Painter & Graphic Artist
When high technology and visual aesthetics are united through the medium of serigraphy, the artistic product is a visual maze of color and line. David Kroos uses found objects, computer circuit plates which date to the 1950's, as the sources for his designs. He removes sections of the plate, making an etching directly from it and then uses this impression to prepare the screens for printing. His early work maintained a strict geometric regularity, but recently he has been much more spontaneous in his approach, allowing the work to flow freely, taking advantage of interesting accidental arrangements. The resultant image is more organic and subtler, with a blending of the colors and often the addition of embossing or fiber arts.
Born in Wisconsin in 1946, Kroos studied at the Art Institute of Chicago, the University of Wisconsin, the Minneapolis College of Art and Design and the University of Nigeria, where he studied with Odita, a well-known traditionalist artist. He received a degree in architecture from the University of Minnesota and was a practicing architect for several years until he directed himself entirely to his graphic arts. He has also worked in painting, woodcut printing, and mixed media collages, and has exhibited his works in many cities in the United States and Europe. He has works in the collections of the Dayton-Hudson Corporation, Northwestern University, KSTP Offices, Standard Oil of Indiana, the University of Wisconsin, Honeywell Corporation and 3M Company.
