Rose Lindzon – Artist Biography
Art history and archaeology have always interested me and are important to my work. Numerous trips to Italy, Greece, Turkey, India, and Spain, etc, have been most inspirational. I have participated in an archaeology dig in Etruria (Tuscany), studied Fresco technique in Italy, and I have written a book on Ancient Greece as well as on Anatolia (ancient Turkey). My technique relies on colour supported by structure with abundant use of collage.
“Lindzon’s work has relied on exploration – each work building from the last, each new phase posing another questions to be solved. Rich in gestural and impasto application of paint, that paint can be unrepentantly peeled back to reveal the paintings support. Collage introduces essentially foreign elements into the rich and painterly matrix.”
