Sean DiIanni 

Sean DiIanni was born in New Jersey in 1985.  He is based in Santa Fe, New Mexico where he was an integral member of the arts collective Meow Wolf from 2008-2012.  In 2011 he led the design and construction of the central aspect of Meow Wolf’s enormous, immersive installation, The Due Return at the center for Contemporary Arts, Santa Fe. He has lectured as a visiting artist at the University of New Mexico and the Santa Fe University of Art and Design.  He has shown his work in galleries across the country including Linda Durham Contemporary Art in Santa Fe, NM and Thomas Robertello Gallery, Chicago, IL. Sean graduated from the Rhode Island School of Design with a BFA in Sculpture in 2007. He earned a Masters in Liberal Arts from St. Johns College in Santa Fe in 2013 where he studied Mathematics and Natural Science, Literature, Philosophy and Theology, and Political Science through the great books.

 

 

Brandon Behning and Marcus Hunter

Brandon Behning was born in Alpena Michigan in 1982.  Marcus Hunter was born in Muskegon Michigan in 1983.  They met when Brandon moved to Grand Rapids Michigan in 1999.  After spending much of their time together while attending High School, they both attended Kendall College of Art & Design intermittently until moving to Santa Fe, NM, in 2007. They are both spectacular creative forces; making art together sometimes and sometimes not. Having cohabitated together for as long as they have, the two have developed a highly refined (if not always so specific) aesthetic vocabulary. Marcus’ work primarily embodies minimalist painting practices while Brandon’s consists of far more frenetic qualities. The two, mostly different, approaches create a successful balance of the cautious and chaotic.
