Albert Wilking Resume

Albert Wilking was born in Anaheim, California near Disneyland to a photographer painter mother and inventor father. Wilking lived an early bohemian life traveling and camping all over the west coast, New Mexico and Texas before moving to New Brunswick, NJ. Daytrips were common to Soho and to abandoned barns along the Delaware. At the age of seven he began sketching on a regular basis. With his father's encouragement he had a number of shows and sold a couple dozen paintings by the time he was 12, garnering press including The New York Times. Wilking received a BS from the College of New Jersey. He attended the New School University, NYC, for screenwriting and Pratt Institute, NYC for Flash animation. In 2002 the Queens Museum in New York City acquired two of his paintings through the Monique Goldstrom Gallery, Soho, NY. In 2006 Wilking formed Crazy Studios, turning his love of painting to video and writing. He has produced over fifty viral videos, garnering attention from web junkies across the world. In 2008 he partnered with Susan McIntosh to produce a comedy pilot. In 2009 he again partnered with Susan McIntosh to produce Wondermare at the Apexart gallery in Tribeca, NYC.
