    BIO/STATEMENT:

    Ala Ebtekar describes his work as “a visual glimpse of a crossroad where present day events meet history and mythology”. As a young teenager he joined the seminal group K.O.S. (Kids of Survival), working with artist Tim Rollins on collaborative artworks involving groups of urban youth. He received his BA from the San Francisco Art Institute in 2002 and his MFA degree from Stanford University in 2006. His work has been exhibited internationally and throughout the United States in such shows as “One Way or Another: Asian American Art Now”, a touring exhibition originating at the Asia Society, NYC, “2006 California Biennial” at the Orange County Museum of Art, and most recently in “The Global Contemporary: Art Worlds After 1989” at the ZKM – Museum for Contemporary Art in Germany. He is currently a visiting lecturer at Stanford University, and lives and works in the San Francisco Bay Area.
