Robert and Shana ParkeHarrison

Robert and Shana ParkeHarrison are a surrealistic husband and wife team who create create incredible images together. Their 2000 book, which is now one decade old, The Architect’s Brother is a work of pure genius. They have been collaborating for years. Their work has been displayed in 18 solo exhibitions and over 30 group shows presented worldwide in places such as Japan, Canada, and Italy. In addition, their work can be found in over 20 prestigious art collections, including the National Museum of American Art at the Smithsonian Institution and the George Eastman House. The ParkeHarrisons also lecture extensively on art and human influences on the environment.
