Marc Handelman is a visual artist and teacher based in Brooklyn, New York. Handelman’s works explore the afterlives of the genre of landscape, often where they intersect with the aesthetic and ideological legacies of American Landscape painting and contemporary image culture. His work has drawn on sources and research from art history, ecology, imperial botany, and the archive to consider questions of nature and naturalization in the grammar and violent hierarchies of social, legal and political life. Handelman has exhibited throughout the U.S. and internationally including PS1 MoMA; The Studio Museum in Harlem, The Nerman Museum of Contemporary Art, The Orlando Museum, The Rubin Museum, The Royal Academy of Art, The Royal Swedish Academy of Fine Arts, The Portland Museum of Contemporary Art, Santa Barbara Museum of Art, Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Alicante, Museo de la Ciudad in Santiago de Queretaro, Matsumoto City Museum of Art, Sioux City Art Center, and Artists Space among others.
