Dave Kinsey was born in Pittsburgh in 1971, attending the

Art Institute of Pittsburgh and the Art Institute of Atlanta before

moving to California in 1994 to pursue a career as a designer

and fine artist. His work attempts to capture the universal

essence of the human condition mainly through a symbolic

portrayal of contemporary life. Utilizing a range of mediums,

he constructs multi-layered, textured environments that echo

the complexities of our existence. His fine art has been shown

in galleries and museums worldwide—among these have

been exhibitions at the URBIS Museum in Manchester, UK,

NEXT Chicago, Joshua Liner Gallery in NY, Alice Gallery

and Art Brussels in Belgium. His work has been featured in

multiple local and international print and online publications

from The New York Times and Washington Post to The Citrus

Report. He has also been invited to speak at institutions such

as the Pasadena Art Center, UCLA, Montserrat College of Art

and the Semi-Permanent conference in Sydney, Australia.


Kinsey founded BLK/MRKT in 1996 and BLK/MRKT Gallery

(now Kinsey/DesForges) in 2001, allowing him to provide a

crossroads for a new movement of emerging iconoclasts.
