"Where my brother would go hide.” (Trees), 2008
"The unifying thread, which runs through all of the photographs of Scott Patrick Wiener, is how efficiently he captures precisely those things which appear to be impossible to capture. The familiarity of a family member, the abstracting lens of memory, the inherently well composed order of the trivial; these are Wiener’s subjects."
- Maxwell G. Graham, 2007
Wiener received his Bachelors of Fine Arts at Massachusetts College of Art in 2001 and his Masters of Fine Arts from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2007. His work has been featured at The Upstairs Gallery, The Copley Society, AtlanticWorks and the Carpenter Center for Visual Arts in Boston, Gallery 2 and the Cultural Center in Chicago, and the Werkschauhalle in Leipzig, Germany.
Publications include issue #1 of "Paper & Carriage" available from ThreeWalls Press with text by Shannon Stratton and the catalog from the traveling exhibition "Three Hours Between Planes" with texts by Marco Poloni, Eiko Grimberg and James Elkins.
