Adam Grossi is an artist living and working in Chicago. He is originally from Reston, Virginia, one of the country’s first suburban environments to manifest from the utopian spirit of “new town” development. The triumphs and failures of Reston’s intentional landscape have formed a kind of locus for Adam’s work, which relies on reading, interpreting, and reconfiguring the meaning embedded in the conventions and rhetoric of American middle-class culture. He received a BFA from Carnegie Mellon University in 2003 and an MFA from the University of Illinois at Chicago in 2009.
