In 1973 Joshua Field was born in the Berkshires of western Massachusetts. He spent his formative years in St. Petersburg, Florida where he attended the Pinellas County Center for the Arts, a competitive four-year high school for the arts. Field later attended the Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore where he earned his BFA. At MICA, he focused on assemblage/collage and poetry, and was mentored by Joe Cardarelli, a renowned beat poet and friend of Alan Ginsberg, Andrei Codrescu, Anselm Hollo and Robert Creeley. In the 90′s Field moved back to the Berkshires where he currently maintains a studio in North Adams, Massachusetts, home to the largest contemporary art museum on the east coast, MassMoCA. He has exhibited nationally and internationally, from Chelsea in New York City to Berlin, Germany. (Via EIL.)
