Jon Burgerman

Burgerman performed at our March 2026 Seriously Entertaining show, “Pleasure for Pleasure.”

Jon Burgerman is a New York-based British artist whose instantly recognizable works—pronounced eyes, fuzzy edges, bold colors, comically distressed expressions—have traveled from gallery walls and public murals to children’s bookshelves. Burgerman’s works are held in the permanent collections of public collections such as the Victoria and Albert Museum and the OÖ Landes-Kultur museum in Linz, Austria. Exhibited internationally from Hong Kong and Taipei to Berlin and Edinburgh, his work includes collaborations with Disney, Sesame Street, Nike, Samsung, and Apple. In addition to his artwork, Burgerman is the author-illustrator of multiple picture books, including Splat!, How to Eat Pizza, Rhyme Crime, and the Everybody series.
