John Cederquist: life and works

John Carl Cederquist (born August 7, 1946) is an American sculptor in wood and builder of studio furniture who was born in Altadena, California. He graduated from Long Beach State College afterward a BA in 1969 and an MA in 1971.

Cederquist is best known for his playful, trompe-l’œil wood assemblages―often in the form of pieces of furniture―that blur the distinctions between authenticity and illusion. He often employs cartoon-like drawings and skewed perspectives. Since 1976, he has taught at Saddleback College in Mission Viejo, California.
