Randy Hussong (b. 1955) is a sculptor, printmaker and educator whose inventive assemblages combine humor, popular culture and social commentary. Based in Northern California, he creates sculptures and installations using found objects, unconventional materials and references to automobiles, consumer products and everyday rituals. His work challenges distinctions between high art and popular culture, often using satire to examine social values and cultural obsessions. Hussong co-founded the experimental artist space Jet Wave and curated an exhibition devoted to hot-rod artist Ed “Big Daddy” Roth at New Langton Arts in San Francisco. He taught sculpture and printmaking at UC Berkeley for nearly three decades, receiving the university's Distinguished Teaching Award in 2008–09. In 1992, he was a visiting artist at UC Davis and taught sculpture and drawing. Hussong’s recent projects explore homelessness and the changing landscapes of Bay Area encampments.
