Joshua Callaghan
Posted by Fabio 4 January 2010
I have always been intrigued and fascinated by American artist and film maker Joshua Callaghan’s mix of wit and dark humor in his work which often is critical towards the American material culture and mass production. Callaghan’s art has been exhibited at venues including the UC Riverside Sweeney Gallery, the Guggenheim Gallery of Chapman University, and his videos at museums and festivals internationally.
