PAUL DICKERSON

Paul Dickerson took his own life in March 1997 at age 36. A native of Chicago, he had been living in New York since 1986. During his lifetime, his work was exhibited in group and solo shows in New York and elsewhere; he was active with pursuing his ideas about art in the form of writings (the majority unpublished), talks, and exhibitions. Probably the most successful exhibition of his work took place after his death, a show that was organized by the artist Serge Spitzer at American Fine Arts, Co. in the summer of 1998. This was the first show that was representative of Dickerson's wide use of media, and notably the first exhibition that included his drawings.
