William Powhida

William Powhida's work can be considered an angry response to the movers and shakers of the art world and its hierarchical structures. But they are also well executed pieces that include, drawing, painting and critical writing, a far cry from the more common 'hate art' that we can easily find among frustrated artists and critics alike. In fact, Powhida, a self-proclaimed 'reformed art critic,' used to write for The Brooklyn Rail for years before venturing full-time into his own artistic practice.
