Paul O’Keeffe’s practice spans across sculpture and installation and often explores prosaic objects laden with personal histories. As an immigrant to the United States, many of his pieces have explored the forms he encountered in radically shifting contexts. Born in Dublin, Ireland in 1957, O’Keeffe attended St. Martin’s School of Art, London and the National College of Art and Design Dublin. He subsequently studied at UCLA through a Fulbright Travel Scholarship, where he received an MFA in 1981. A professor emeritus at Kent State University, O’Keeffe currently lives and works in Cleveland Heights, Ohio. He is the recipient of a number of awards, including a 2021 Ohio Arts Council Individual Artist Excellence Award, which the Ohio Arts Council has given him on thirteen previous occasions. In 2017, he was awarded a John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Fellowship. He has also received an Arts Midwest/National Endowment for the Arts Award, a Ford Foundation grant and awards from the Arts Council of Ireland.
