Andrew Brischler makes paintings and drawings that explore queer identity through the lens of American popular culture.
Rooted in drawing, his practice reinterprets pop-cultural ephemera into graphic compositions with bold, saturated color. Typography and graphic design are central to his work, which often evokes the aesthetics of vintage book covers and movie posters. Drawing from personal archives and historical references, Brischler investigates the tension between visibility and erasure in queer representation and how collective media consumption shapes both autobiography and identity.
