Justin Korver is an artist living and working in San Antonio, Texas. He is originally from a small town in the northwest corner of Iowa which he credits for his penchant for minimalism. Korver moved to Holland, Michigan to complete his undergraduate work at Hope College. While in Michigan, he was influenced by mid-century design and discovered a passion for hardware stores. He also lived and worked briefly in New York through the N.Y.C.A.M.S. program where he interned with Phoebe Washburn who served as an early influence on his studio practice. Korver received his MFA from the University of Texas at San Antonio. He is now a Senior Lecturer at Texas A&M San Antonio. He exhibits his work extensively in Texas and nationally. He recently was selected for the artist-in-residence programs at Kunstlerhaus Bethanien in Berlin, Casa Lü in Mexico City, and Rockland Woods outside Seattle.
