Joshua Hagler lived and worked in San Francisco and then Los Angeles for fifteen years before moving to Roswell, New Mexico in 2018 as a grant recipient of the year-long Roswell Artist in Residence Program. He and his wife, the artist Maja Ruznic, now live and work in Roswell, NM. Hagler was born at Mountain Home Air Force Base in Idaho in 1979 and is a first-generation college graduate with a visual communications degree from the University of Arizona in Tucson. Self-directed research and travel has underpinned Hagler’s career and is essential to how the artist integrates creative influences with his life experience.
Joshua Hagler is a 2020 Hopper Prize Finalist. 2018 saw two museum shows at the Brand Library and Art Center in Los Angeles and the Roswell Museum and Art Center in New Mexico entitled The River Lethe and Love Letters to the Poorly Regarded respectively. 2019 marked his first U.K. solo exhibition entitled Chimera, at Unit London. The artist’s second solo exhibition with Unit London, The Living Circle Us, was curated by art historian, David Anfam, and was accompanied by the artist’s debut monograph, This is The Picture. He has exhibited paintings, sculpture, video, and animation in galleries and museums in North and South America, Europe, and Australia including a long list of solo exhibitions. Hagler has completed residencies abroad in France, Italy and Norway. Reviews and features about the work, as well as his own poems and essays, have appeared in a variety of publications and media outlets in the U.S. and other parts of the world, including GQ Magazine and Italian Vogue.
