Bryan Griffith

Interdisciplinary artist Bryan David Griffith explores complex issues using simple forms and materials. Bryan earned a degree in engineering and worked for an international management consulting firm before he resigned to follow his conscience. He bought an old van to live out of as he toured the country to build a new career as an artist. When Bryan’s van broke down in Flagstaff, AZ he fell in love with the town, and then his wife, Tasha. He never left.
In 2016, Bryan won the Flagstaff Arts Council’s Viola Award and the Phoenix Art Museum’s Artist Grant for his work on wildfire. His work is held in a number of permanent collections including the Museum of Fine Arts Houston, Phoenix Art Museum, University of Michigan Museum of Art, Center for Creative Photography, and Fort Wayne Museum of Art. His recent solo exhibitions include the High Desert Museum, Fresno Art Museum, and Mesa Contemporary Arts Museum. Bryan is represented by Bentley Gallery in Phoenix.
