Joseph Broghammer for sale on 1stDibs

Joseph Broghammer is as much of a storyteller as he is an artist. His one-of-a-kind pastel drawings in Animals are chronicles of his life. The creatures Broghammer creates are vehicles to uncover the varying characteristics of the artist’s identity. Broghammer began mastering his dry painting technique during his BFA in Visual Art at the University of South Dakota. He graduated in 1986 and a year later went on to study his MFA. at the University of Wisconsin. In 2009, he studied at Creative Capital in Omaha, Nebraska. Broghammer later went on to become an educator himself, teaching at WhyArts? and becoming an Artist Assistant at Vera Mercer in Omahaboth of which he still practices today. Broghammer’s work has resonated with many people around the world. Only a few years after his formal education, he began exhibiting his work through various International group shows in Italy, Germany, Holland, Mexico and even Kansas City. Although Broghammer’s portraits depict downy creatures, his work is very much about the human experience. They are honest and full of life, evoking a sincere exchange between artist and viewer.
