EJ Hill is an artist born, raised, and based in South Central, Los Angeles. Hill’s practice focuses largely on challenging the social aspects and systems that construct a body. He is not only interested in how bodies and subjectivities are formed, understood, and valued within different contexts, but also how they redefine the parameters that determine which of them are allowed to exist freely.
His work has been exhibited at the Hammer Museum, Los Angeles; the Studio Museum in Harlem, New York; the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; MASS MoCA, North Adams, MA; Los Angeles County Museum of Art; the Aspen Art Museum; PinchukArtCentre, Kyiv, Ukraine; and Institut d’art contemporain, Villeurbanne/Rhône-Alpes, France. Hill received an MFA from the University of California, Los Angeles in 2013 and a BFA from Columbia College Chicago in 2011.
This lecture is part of the Fine Arts Visiting Artist Lecture Series.
