Biography
Leif Brush (b.Mar 28, 1932) studied art at the School of the Arts Institute in Chicago. Some of the work he made as a student already contained the elements that would come to play a central role in his later work. For example, one of his projects was a huge wind harp built on the school roof.
Brush taught at the University of Minnesota, Duluth where he is an emeritus art professor in the Department of Art & Design. Brush pioneered the use of computer and sound capture technology in his own artwork and developed some of the first courses in digital art at UMD. His work remains vital to the study of sound art on an international level. Leif Brush has developed a unique vocabulary evolving alongside his experimental soundworks which often juxtapose analog/digital and invisible/tangible forces of nature.
