Julia Wachtel is a conceptual artist who thrived in the New York City art scene of the 1980’s among contemporaries like Robert Gober, Jeff Koons and Cindy Sherman. Her art looks at the interplay of advertising and other commercial media in everyday life and speaks to her interest in consumer and political culture.
Julia has a bachelor’s degree from Middlebury College, studied at the School of Visual Arts and did independent study at the Whitney Museum of American Art.
Her work is in the collections of NYC’s Museum of Modern Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art and, and the Walker Art Center among others.
After more than a decade working in magazine publishing she returned to making art full-time facing a world of even more intense media exposure thanks to the Internet and social media. She curates and interprets the impact of all of this content through her work.
