Aaron Coleman is a mixed media artist and printmaker creating works focused on political and social issues. He combines imagery from comic books and stained glass windows to raise questions concerning misconstrued belief systems and twisted moral values in our society. Aaron\u2019s background in hip-hop culture and street art remains as a major influence in his fine art practices.<\/p>\n

Coleman is an Assistant Professor of Art at the University of Arizona. He received his MFA from Northern Illinois University in 2013. He has exhibited internationally and received numerous awards, scholarships and fellowships for his work in lithography and mezzotint. Aaron\u2019s work can be found in the collections of The University of Colorado, Wichita State University, the Ino-cho Paper Museum in Kochi, Japan, The Yekaterinburg Museum of Art in Russia, and the University of Tennessee Knoxville\u2019s Ewing Gallery Collection.<\/p>\n

While here at the University of Utah, he editioned a new print with the assistance of Printmaking students, Professor Andrew Rice, and Professor Justin Diggle. Everyone worked hard to print a 6 color lithograph with two layers of screenprint. A lot of students came by to see them in action, and Aaron also gave a great lecture.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
