- Theo Hearst has been surrounded by art from a very early age, and has been making art in one form or another his entire life. His work includes paintings, collages/mixed media, sculpture, photography, poetry, acting, and film making. His passion for art came in part from his father, a well-known and highly respected curator of 20th century and contemporary art. From a very young age, Theo was afforded the unique opportunity to experience art around the world, while his father studied and worked in world-class cities like New York, Tokyo, Venice, Philadelphia, Berkeley and Bern.
This culturally rich childhood and adolescence, in which virtually every dinner table conversation centered on museums and art, led Theo to Ithaca College, where he took several drama classes and earned a Bachelor of Arts degree with a major in Sculpture in 1995. He then interned at the Marian Goodman Gallery in New York City. Also, from 1999 to 2008, he attended the HB Studio & The Stella Adler Studio of Acting.- IMDb Mini Biography By: Theo Hearst
- His abstract sculptures are mostly made from found material; such as scrap metal, wood, old computer parts, books, etc.
- Awarded first place in a sculpture contest sponsored by Drexel University while in high school.
- Learned to operate a tractor trailer truck and drove around USA/Canada for six months for the experience & documentation.
- Eve Plumb threw a pie in his face, in a scene from the film, The Sisters Plotz.
- In rehearsal, Eve Plumb said about him, "He doesn't have a mean bone in his body".
- Art is best when it transports you to a new place, when you don't want to look away because the reality of your moment before you saw the art was not as pleasurable as the reality that the artwork reflected in you when you became engulfed in it. When you do finally look away and are back in your reality, you want to see the artwork again, and let it help you learn about the new reality it has brought to you.
- [on his production company's name, Skateboard Yoga Entertainment] I like the meditativeness of yoga, the zen, combined with the toughness, the outsider coolness of skateboarding.
