Shag (artist)

Josh Agle, a.k.a. Shag

Josh Agle (born August 31, 1962) is an American artist, better known by the nickname Shag.

Life

Agle's nickname is derived from the last two letters of his first name, and the first two letters of his last name.[1] He had his first solo gallery exhibition in 1997,[1] and his first New York gallery show in 2002.[2]

On December 31, 2010, the Shagmart Newsletter announced that Shag had suffered a near-fatal accident, and although he would recover, he would be taking it easy for the next year.
