User:Beauvais Lyons

I am a Professor of Art at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville where I have taught printmaking since 1985. In my own studio practice I am known for creating mock-documentary museum exhibitions. I have expertise in contemporary art, parody, mock-academics, pranks, as well as historical and contemporary printmaking (particularly lithography). I received my MFA degree from Arizona State University and my BFA from the University of Wisconsin - Madison. I have been active in organizations such as the College Art Association and the Southern Graphics Council International. In 2002 I was a Fulbright lecturer at the University of the Arts, Poznañ, Poland.
