Geoffrey Chadsey

Chadsey was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. In 1989, he received an AB in visual and environmental studies from Harvard University, and in 1995, an MFA in Photography and Drawing from California College of the Arts.^[1][3]

His conspicuously flawed bodies are often androgynous, as in Portrait II, in the collection of the Honolulu Museum of Art.^[4] The Honolulu Museum of Art and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art are among the public collections holding work by Geoffrey Chadsey.^[4][5][6]
