A painter, sculptor, and poet whose work explores the practice of mark- and image-making as fundamental, evolutionary human functions, Peter Nadin (b. 1954 in Bromborough) is the son of a sea captain whose family roots stretch back centuries in northwest England. In 1980 in New York, he became a founder of an unlikely artists’ collective called The Offices of Fend, Fitzgibbon, Holzer, Nadin, Prince & Winters. In 2022, Off Paradise hosted the exhibitions “A Proposal to Peter Nadin, 1979; realized 2022” and “The Distance from a Lemon to Murder.” Nadin’s work has been included in numerous exhibitions, and public and private collections, including The Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Museum of Modern Art, the Yale Center for British Art and the Centre Pompidou.
