Dave Channon is an exhibiting painter, sculptor and multimedia artist. Apprentice to Joseph Cornell in 1969 at the age of seventeen, Channon has worked with many important artists, including Red Grooms, Peter Max, Keith Haring, Phillip Guston and Robert Indiana.
His first show was in 1979 at Franklin Furnace, an alternative art space in lower Manhattan. His oversize sculptures have been reviewed in Art in America, the New York Times, the New Yorker, The Village Voice and New York magazine. Channon has exhibited paintings and sculptures in The New School, The Brooklyn Museum, Ft. Pierce Art Museum, galleries in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Woodstock and Phoenicia, The Kingston Biennial, and the Stone Barns Center for Food and Agriculture in Pocantico Hills, NY.
During the 90s, Channon focused on video art. He had his inventive programs included in a Venice Biennale, exhibited in museums, clubs and galleries, cablecast on Public Access television and broadcast by satellite internationally.
Moving to the Catskills in 1999, he began welding steel sculptures at his studio in Shandaken. He also works in oils, digital graphics, video production, animation, website design and illustration. Studio visits by appointment.
