About the artist
Endi Poskovic is a Bosnian-born artist whose work bridges the realms of printmaking, memory, and environmental consciousness. Educated in Yugoslavia, Norway, and the United States, he initially trained as a musician, performing across Europe and the Middle East before transitioning into the visual arts. He earned his M.F.A. from the State University of New York in 1993 and has since exhibited internationally, from the Shanghai Print Biennial to the Krakow International Triennial and the International Print Center in New York. His work is held in numerous public collections, including the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Detroit Institute of Arts, and Harvard University's Fogg Art Museum.
A recipient of prestigious fellowships from the Guggenheim Foundation, the Pollock-Krasner Foundation, and the Rockefeller Bellagio Center, among many others, Poskovic is currently a Professor at the University of Michigan's Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design. His interdisciplinary approach extends beyond the studio, with joint appointments at the university’s Center for Japanese Studies, the Copernicus Center for Polish Studies, and other research institutions exploring the intersections of art, culture, and history.
