Michael Zelehoski

Michael Zelehoski, who grew up in the Berkshires, is an internationally renowned mixed media artist. He has exhibited around the globe and his works are represented in major collections throughout the United States and abroad, most notably at the Centre Pompidou in Paris, which acquired his monumental, 35 ft. piece Open House in the spring of 2015. 
 
Zelehoski uses a unique wooden inlay technique to create his work. “I am trying to reconcile the dichotomy between pictorial and physical space, art and object, sculpture, and painting”. The artist’s intention is to challenge the viewer to see the physicality of the work in a different form. His pieces are dynamic and draw the viewer’s interest by forcing our eyes and minds to see things from different and contradictory perspectives.
