Connected as Brooke Gassiot (565 friends)
Brooke Gassiot was raised west of Austin, TX on a 2000-acre ranch. Born at home, she grew up eating watermelon and swimming in a spring-fed swimming hole, and spent summers in the desert mountains of Mexico.
Brooke received a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Studio Art with a focus on sculpture and painting from the University of Texas. In 2005, she traveled to Italy on full scholarship, where she visited the Venice Biennale. Upon return, she completed her first large-scale installation with the help of a UT fellowship.
Currently, Brooke is working on her first solo show slated for January 21st, 2012 at the Pump Project Art Complex in East Austin. Her work has been exhibited at Blue Star Contemporary Art Center in San Antonio, Ggallery Houston, GSD&M, Women and Their Work and the Austin Bergstrom International Airport. She is also the Membership Coordinator on the Executive Board of the Texas Sculpture Group, a group formed to support contemporary sculpture in Texas.
