Marcel Dzama's work is characterized by an immediately recognizable visual language that draws from a diverse range of references and artistic influences, including Dada and Marcel Duchamp. While he has become known for his prolific drawings with their distinctive palette of muted colors, in recent years, the artist has expanded his practice to encompass sculpture, painting, film, and dioramas.

A painter, sculptor, filmmaker, and theater designer, the artist’s unique style has transcended the gallery with his collaboration with the New York City Ballet in 2016.

In 2013, Abrams published the first comprehensive monograph of the artist's work, titled Marcel Dzama: Sower of Discord. Produced and designed in collaboration with the artist, it features contributions by Bradley Bailey, Dave Eggers, Spike Jonze, and Raymond Pettibon.

Marcel Dzama received his BFA from the University of Manitoba. He currently lives and works in Brooklyn, NY.
