John Clement
John Clement is an artist based in Brooklyn and works out of Long Island City in Queens. After receiving a BA from the University of Pennsylvania in 1992, Clement studied briefly at New York’s School of Visual Arts before moving on to work with Marc di Suvero and John Henry in the 1990s. In addition to numerous gallery exhibitions, Clement has also completed many public commissions and installations across the United States and abroad. His large scale sculptures deal with line, movement, form and color. Brian caught up with him at his Long Island City studio to discuss his unconventional entry into a life in sculpture, the logistics of his work, his influences and much more.
