About the Artist
Critz Campbell earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC), in 1990. The SAIC then designated him a post-graduate exchange student at the Arco Centro de Communicao Visual in Lisbon. That assignment was followed by two years at Penland School of Crafts in Penland, North Carolina as a CORE student, and another two years studying furniture design at Parnham College in the UK.
Campbell has served on the faculty of the SAIC and is currently a professor of sculpture and department head of the Art Department at Mississippi State University. He has shown in Inside Design Now at the Cooper-Hewitt Museum in New York; Furniture Future Tense at the De Cordoba Museum, Lincoln, Massachusetts; International Contemporary Furniture Fair (ICFF) in New York; and Seven Days—Seven Nights in the LIMN Gallery of San Francisco. Campbell has also won awards from the Mississippi Arts Commission and the National Endowment for the Arts. In 2019 he was awarded the Jane Crater Hiatt Artist Fellowship grant and inclusion in that year’s Mississippi Museum of Art juried Invitational biennial exhibition. In 2020 he was selected as the Art in Architecture Artist for the new Federal Courthouse in Greenville, Mississippi.
