Angelbert Metoyer (born in July 1977 in New Orleans, Louisiana) (AN-gel-bər MUH-twy-ər) is an American visual artist.[2][3] Metoyer began his artistic career through Rick Lowe's Project Row Houses in Houston, Texas and held his first solo exhibition there in 1994. He subsequently moved to Atlanta to study drawing and painting at the Atlanta College of Art. Although a bit of a nomad living in various parts of the world, Angelbert Metoyer currently lives with his wife and son in Houston, Rotterdam, and Tokyo.[4]
Metoyer's art explores memory and social history through the lenses of science, philosophy, and religion. He works in various media, including drawing, painting, installation, and sound.[5] He appropriates unusual art materials, which he calls "excrements of industry," that include coal, glass, debris, oil, tar, mirrors, and gold dust.[6][7]
