Joseph Cavalieri is an artist and educator living in Voulême, France. He was raised in New York.
Joseph’s work can be seen in the permanent collection of the Museum of Arts and Design, the Italian American Museum, the Leslie-Lohman Museum, the Stax Museum, and in the collections of two Simpson’s writers in Los Angeles.
Private and public art commissions include a MTA Arts for Transit public art installation at the Philipse Manor Train Station in New York, and Our Lady of Sorrow Church in Brazil.
Joseph has collaborated with illustrator R. Crumb.
He has attended fifteen art residencies in the US, South America, Europe, Australia and India, and two more 2026 upcoming in Italy and China. In 2015 Cavalieri was invited to be the keynote speaker for the Glass Society of Ireland and NCAD Conference.
Cavalieri’s teaching credentials include over 100 workshops in the USA, South America and Europe, including Corning Museum of Glass, Berlin Glas, Pilchuck, and Penland School of Craft.
Painted stained glass has a powerful tradition that dates back to Medieval windows in cathedrals throughout Europe. Joseph Cavalieri’s techniques use a similar process of painting and firing enamels on glass in a kiln, while he combines more modern processes with hand painting on glass including airbrushing, silk-screening, and penning to produce commissions and public art projects.
