Quentin Moseley: quentinmoseley@gmail.com
Quentin Moseley received his BFA from Syracuse University in 1970 and MFA from the Hoffberger School of Painting at MICA in Baltimore in 1972. While studying painting, Moseley kept up the dialogue with printmaking and particularly screen printing. Since 1974, Moseley has been a full time professor at MICA primarily associated with the Printmaking Department. He has taught all media in Printmaking, keeping the specialties of screen print and collagraph at the forefront of teaching and in a dialogue with a broad range of mixed media personal work. He has held numerous administrative positions at MICA, including Foundation Dept. Chair during the 1980’s and Chair of Printmaking from 1997 to 2004. Recently he has been involved with safety compliance at MICA serving as Coordinator of Environmental Health and Safety.
During the 1980’s Moseley did large scale animated neon installations and subsequently has pursued painted relief and mixed media constructions which sometimes have luminous tubes attached. He has been included in many regional exhibitions as well as some national and international exhibits. Of recent work he says: “I have adopted the signs and symbols of neolithic and paleolithic man and have reinterpreted them with drawings, constructions, neons and prints. Through working with these prehistoric images, the symbols come full circle to reveal a contemporary philosophy that depicts our true place in the universe, not as dominator, but in mystical reverence of the signs that reveal meaning in the cycles of life.”
