Carla Goldberg

As an abstract mixed media artist, the fluidity of line meandering through deep layers of watery, pooling resin is my visual language. I paint about bodies of water using a cross section of folklore, culture, and science. I enjoy using new and unlikely materials and combining them with traditional art mediums, pushing those materials constantly into new forms.

I am also the Gallery Director of Skylight Gallery in NYC which is focused on bringing together city based artists in art conversations with Hudson Valley based artists. I am a member of Beacon Artists Union and a Council Member of the International Coalition of Artists known as Mirca Art Group. In the summer of 2009, I started Insight Gallery in Cold Spring, NY- focusing on artists of the Hudson Region as an alternative and temporary art-space. Additionally, I have curated many large group shows such as the Centennial Anniversary Alumni exhibition for the University of Redlands and the Freedom & Art Project I created as an ongoing donated fundraiser format for Amnesty International.

originally from Palm Springs, CA. I graduated with honors from the University of Redlands in California and received my MFA from MICA. I now make the Hudson Valley region of New York my home, which invariably makes its way into the subject matter of many of my works. My art has been shown nationally and internationally. I have exhibited in museums such as The Tabernacle, MOMA Wales, Brooklyn Waterfront Museum and the Dolmabahce Palace (State Gallery) Istanbul, Turkey. I have exhibited at numerous universities in solo shows including, UConn and Southwestern Minnesota University Museum of Art and group shows at the University of Malta, Ostra Gymnasiet in Sweden and the Holbæk Art School in Denmark for the Global Village Stories Project. My work can be found in public spaces and private collections such as Johns Hopkins Hospital- Baltimore, MD, State Farm Insurance- Palm Springs, CA, Swiss Re- Armonk, NY, Raven Paul & Company, Burbank, CA and Mid-Hudson Gastroenterology-Cortlandt Manor, NY
