ANDREW HOEGL

is a Los Angeles-based artist, writer, and Emmy-nominated television producer. He began his painting practice at the encouragement of his father-in-law, the renowned jazz bassist and fine artist, John Heard. Influenced by Abstract Expressionism, Minimalism, and Color Field painting, his approach to abstraction is both painterly and direct, allowing each work to evolve through intuition. Informed by his background in music and storytelling, he approaches his canvases as compositional spaces where elements build like musical arrangements, creating a dynamic interplay between construction and deconstruction.

Text plays a central role in Hoegl's practice, appearing as fragments that sometimes pose questions, suggest actions, or remain deliberately unfinished—inviting viewers to complete the narrative. His evocative titles and material descriptions add another conceptual layer, suggesting emotional and intangible elements that spark a personal connection between the viewer and the work.

In addition to visual arts, Hoegl has long maintained an interest and study into the emerging technologies of AI, robotics, nanotech and other fields. He is currently working on an interactive installation that synthesizes a long career spannning documentary storytelling, artistic expression and technological research.
