DAN CRANE

Dan Crane is a multidisciplinary artist living and working in Omaha, Nebraska. In 2009, Crane earned his BFA in Printmaking from the Kansas City Art Institute. Since then, he has participated in solo and group exhibitions in and around the Midwest. Crane has been offered fellowship, grant, and collaboration opportunities from many organizations, including The Union for Contemporary Art, The Joslyn Art Museum, The University of Nebraska in Omaha, Kent Bellows Studio, Kaneko, Film Streams, Amplify Arts, and The Bemis Center for Contemporary Arts.

Currently, Crane is focusing on themes of shape/color play and time travel via objects/materials. Utilizing an almost furniture-upholstery-style process, Crane crafts each piece with fabric and lumber sourced from an extensive wood and textile library collected over many years. This approach lends individuality and a unique soul to every creation.
