William Conger American, b. 1937
Works
Overview
William Conger continues his lifelong investigation of formal non-representational abstraction nuanced by the suggestion of illusionism to evoke an ambiguous welter of private and cultural memories, allusions, feelings, places and events. Conger earned a B.F.A. from the University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, MW in 1960 and a M.F.A. from University of Chicago in 1966. Conger is a Chicago-based artist whose work has been exhibited extensively in museums since 1958.
