Biography

Lisa Feldman, a New York native, exhibits her sculptures, etchings, and photographs in various venues in the Northeast: at the Broome Street, Ceres, and Chuck Levitan Galleries in Soho, and the New Century Artists in Chelsea. Museums include the Museum of Modern Art, NYC, the Katonah Museum of Art in Upstate New York, and the Boca Raton Museum in Florida. Jurors of her shows include Grace Glueck, art critic from the New York Times, and Jacqueline Seward, Chief Curator of American Art at the Smithsonian. In 2001, she collaborated on a performance project with award winning playwright Bara Swain at the Museum of Natural History, NYC, where she created scene transitions comprised of original photography and original digital artwork. In 2002 her glass art was included in "North American Glass", in Guilford, Connecticut.

Presently, Lisa is a professional photographer and is the Director of Medical Photography and Media Services at Saint Vincent's Medical Center in NYC. Her photos of 9/11 were on exhibition at 'Here is New York' and 'The September 11th Photo Project', and at the Museum of Modern Art in NYC, where she was included in the 'Life in the City' exhibit. Her photos were also on exhibit at The Memorial for Women in the Military at the Arlington National Cemetery in Washington, DC. Medical photographs and illustrations of hers have been published worldwide in dozens of medical journals and textbooks. She has also received two awards for excellence in advertising and a grant for sculpture from the William Casey Foundation.

Lisa received a classical art education at Boston University’s School of Fine Art, and graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Art from Bennington College in Vermont, where she was also pre-med. She has studied 'traditional' art with Morton Sacks, Pat Adams, Philip Wofford, Sidney Tillim, and Richard Haas, and glass art with Rudi Gritsch, Kimiaki and Shinichi Higuchi, Etsuko Nishi, and Pamina Traylor. She has also received a degree in computer graphics from the New School University in NYC. She has continued to study at numerous institutions, including Urban Glass, Brooklyn, NY; The Studio at The Corning Museum of Glass, Corning, NY; Parsons School of Art, the Art Students League, the Sculpture Center, the Museum of Natural History, NYC, and Massachusetts College of Art, Boston, Massachusetts.

Her current artistic endeavors explore three-dimensional mixed media assemblages using found objects, castable metals, urethane resins, and glass.

She is a member of the National Sculpture Society, the Glass Art Society, the Contemporary Artists Guild, and the Collage and Assemblage Society. After serving on the Board of Directors of the New York Artists Equity Association for 4 years, Lisa will begin her first term on the Executive Board as Treasurer in 2002. She lobbies in Washington, DC on behalf of the association and its 3000+ members for arts legislation and funding and is the researcher for the Artists Welfare Fund's loan program.
