About the Artist

W.K. (William) Marhoefer was born in Chicago in 1952. He started working in ceramics and oil painting in elementary school and attended the young artists studio at The Art Institute of Chicago through high school. In the late 1960's he was involved in the underground comic movement. His work was included in comic books which had national distribution.

In 1970, William was accepted into the B.F.A. Program at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago, and completed his M.F.A. In 1979. From 1976 through 1979 he taught painting, illustration and mixed media at Columbia College, Chicago.

During the 1970's his work was included in numerous exhibits including Black Jack Flashback at the Hyde Park Art Center, Chicago and Vicinity Competitions and Chicago and Vicinity Prize Winners Revisited at the Art Institute of Chicago and Chicago Collects Chicago, a traveling exhibit.

In 1980, William and his wife Michelle opened Broken Art Restoration in Chicago specializing in the restoration of porcelain, pottery and sculptural art objects, for which they have a national reputation of excellence.

William returned to exhibiting his personal sculpture in 2006 while continuing his restoration work.
