Andrew Ondrejcak

Andrew Ondrejcak is an American artist working in theater and film. He writes, directs, and designs his original performances that have been produced in the U.S. and internationally. His films link art historical objects and classical forms with contemporary iconography, often putting a queer perspective on a classical form. Ondrejcak was born and raised in Hattiesburg, Mississippi and studied architecture and painting at the Savannah College of Art and Design, then Playwriting at Brooklyn College, where he studied under playwright Mac Wellman and performance artist Vito Acconci. Ondrejcak re-performed the work of Marina Abramovic at MoMA in 2010 in her retrospective, The Artist Is Present. He has taught design and theatre workshops at Domaine de Boisbuchet in Lessac, France and, from 2003 - 2013, was a freelance lecturer at the Museum of Modern Art.
