Shana and Robert ParkeHarrison
After years of close collaboration, Robert Harrison and Shana Parkey decided to join their names, recognizing both of them as creators, and are now known professionally as Robert and Shana ParkeHarrison.
Robert was born in Missouri, and studied at the Kansas City Art Institute and the University of New Mexico. Shana got her BFA from William Woods College in Fulton MO and studied for several years at the University of New Mexico. Soon after leaving the grant, their career took off; they have shown their work all over the US as well as in Japan and Europe. They are represented in numerous important collections and have received a number of grants, including a Guggenheim. A major book of photographs, The Architect’s Brother, was published in 2000.
