About

Everett Kane's work examines cultural madness, media distortions, surveillance, censorship, torture, emotion, and animal cruelty. Drawing influences from the Viennese Actionists, German Expressionism, Paul McCarthy, Francis Bacon, and the Independent Group, the work deconstructs the photograph and cinema still as historical documents while indicting the viewer's complicity in the rituals that control us. 

Kane has exhibited at Location One, Black and White Gallery, Chinatown Soup, The Art on Paper Art Fair, White Box, Transfer, Envoy Enterprises, Kasia Kay Art Projects, Amos Eno Gallery, Gallery Sensei, The Gallery of Contemporary Art, the Los Angeles Municipal Gallery, the Animamus Art Salon, and the Los Angeles Arboretum.  His work has been reviewed or featured in Hyperallergic, Art F City, The Wall Street Journal, Haberarts, Art Critical, Vice, NewHive, Bushwick Beat, AM New York, Chronogram and Art-Collection.com. His ongoing internet project includes more than 30,000 drawings, 3D renderings, animations, and photographs.  He is an Associate Professor and the BFA 3D Animation Coordinator in the Department of Digital Arts at Pratt Institute.
