About Scott Wixon

New York, NY

Scott has worked and lived in Tribeca in Manhattan since 1975. He grew up on Cape Cod and returns there often. He received a Masters of Fine Arts degree from Yale University. He has a love of nature and the sea, but also enjoys the energy of the city. He has traveled extensively and sampled the art and culture of the world. All of these influences and passions have informed and affected his work. Scott’s work has been exhibited at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and the Guggenheim Museum. He has artworks in the Guggenheim Museum permanent collection, as well as in private and corporate collections. This past summer he was awarded a residency at the Cill Rialaig Project in Ballinskelligs, Ireland, where he created eight water color and colored pencil works on paper.

Press and Accolades
