Maddy Rosenberg
Maddy Rosenberg (born 1956) is an American artist from Brooklyn, New York.[1] Rosenberg received a BFA from Cornell University and her MFA from Bard College. Rosenberg is both an artist and a curator and has also taught at Marymount Manhattan College and at the Manhattan Graphics Center for more than ten years.[2]
Rosenberg's own art focuses on oil painting, artist's books, printmaking, drawing, toy theater and installation and has been said to be influenced by American painter Gillian Pederson-Krag.[1][3]
She has an active exhibition and freelance curatorial career and is the founder and director of Central Booking in DUMBO. Founded in September 2009, Central Booking focuses on the overlap of art and science, particularly in regards to environmental and social justice issues, through non-traditional galleries and exhibition programs.[4]
