Justin Korver

I am an artist and educator living and working in San Antonio, Texas. I am originally from a small town in the northwest corner of Iowa and the plains of home taught me to love minimalism. I moved to Holland, Michigan to complete my undergraduate work at Hope College. While in Michigan, I was influenced by mid-century design and discovered a passion for hardware stores. After Michigan, I moved to Texas to pursue my MFA at the University of Texas at San Antonio where my thesis focused on the critique of the social construction of masculinity. Now I teach as a Senior Lecturer of Art at Texas A&M San Antonio where I facilitate various courses in the theory and practice of art. I exhibit my artwork extensively with recent exhibitions at the Contemporary at Blue Star and grayDUCK Gallery. I have also had the opportunity to pursue artist residencies at the Kunstlerhaus Bethanien in Berlin, Casa LÜ in Mexico City, and Rockland Woods outside Seattle.
