His videos were recently included in Stand Up! at Muse du Pompidou in Paris, and his recent solo show Kramerica! opened two weeks ago at Galerie Tanit in Munich. His videos and Sculptures have been exhibited at both the Whitney Museum and the Brooklyn Museum in New York City.
Kramer was born in New York City where he continues to live and work. As an artist, he tells his own narrative in a variety of media including drawing, painting, sculpture, video and performance. A solo exhibition of Kramer’s work, titled “Never Gets Old” will open in October at Fiendish Plots in Lincoln. Amongst his drawings and sculpture, the show will include a black and white silent movie, "Age Old Story" (2009). "Age Old Story" is the tale of two artists in the pursuit of glory. Both artists’ lives turn on luck, but only one of the two artists’ luck is good.
