Mark Golamco

Bio

Mark Golamco is a Filipino-American artist and multi-instrumental musician. He makes music, dance, drawing, painting, video, and performance. His work tells stories that bridge his experiences with those of past queer ancestors. A classically trained Viola player, Golamco studied orchestra and chamber music in the San Francisco Bay Area and later received a BA in Art from UCLA and an MFA in Painting from RISD. Outlaws, oddballs, and outcasts often take center stage throughout his work as he researches historical figures and relates to them through his own life  experience.  He has performed at the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Judson Memorial Church, Human Resources Los Angeles, PAM Residencies, the Palm Springs Art Museum, REDCAT, MOCA, and was the Artist in Residence at Cafe Dancer, NYC.
