Taylor Zanke
Taylor is a visual artist. His sculptural works are made from found materials including furniture, paper, building debris, plastic bags, and string. He challenges the expectation of where art exists in the world and engages with objects and spaces as they become what they are, where they happen to be. The work unfolds in a reciprocal relationship with photography, drawing, and the making of artists books, where images allow reinhabitation and reverberation.
Zanke founded and directs Allowing Many Forms, a publisher of artists books, through which he releases books of his own work including The Source Can Be Transformed (2024), Two Visits (2019), and Honolulu New York (2013). He has presented these and other volumes at the San Francisco Art Book Fair and Acid-Free Los Angeles Book Market (2024). His work has been featured in duo and group exhibitions at Ruth Gallery in Pasadena (2023, 2024). He presented the site specific work I Know Some Things Form Without You (2023) at Tryst, Torrence Art Museum.
He graduated with a B.F.A. from Parsons The New School For Design and earned a M.Arch and M.S. from Columbia University.
