Patrick Nickell
Patrick Nickell is an American artist/sculptor. Born in Van Nuys, California, Nickell's sculptures debuted at Los Angeles Contemporary Exhibitions in 1988 and Otis/Parsons Gallery in 1989.
Nickell's first solo exhibition, Built for Speed, was at the Sue Spaid Gallery in 1990.
In a 1994 review of a major solo exhibition at Kohn Turner Gallery, Carmine Lannaconne wrote in Art Issues, "Other artists have made the funky and the junky into the chic and elegant, but what distinguishes Nickell is the quixotic sincerity he brings to the endeavor."
Nickell received his Bachelor of Arts from Linfield College, and his Master of Fine Arts from Claremont Graduate School.
Nickell is married to artist Jacci Den Hartog.
