About the Item

Ben Hamburger says of his work… I use painting to explore my environment, experiences, and inner worlds. Grounded in observational painting, my work spans a range of subject matter and degrees of abstraction, often reflecting the complex relationship between people and nature. Painting provokes me to see the world with greater sensitivity, and my work is a response to the elements that intrigue me. Shapes, light, and color interactions often initiate the work, but they don’t necessarily dictate the outcome. In my effort to materialize a fleeting moment or idea, I experiment with process and materials, allowing something new to emerge.   Teaching and socially engaged projects are integral to my multifaceted role as an artist. These collaborative experiences create a generative exchange in which my studio practice informs my teaching, and teaching, in turn, invigorates my painting. _____ Ben Hamburger is a painter and art educator based in New Orleans, Louisiana. Hamburger holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Visual Arts from Eckerd College and a Master of Fine Arts Degree in Community Arts from Maryland Institute College of Art. His work has been exhibited in group and solo exhibitions around the country at locations including the Maryhill Museum of Art, The San Bernardino County Museum, the Contemporary Art Museum of Raleigh, and the New Orleans Academy of Fine Art. Hamburger has led workshops and taught in diverse settings including public schools, universities, art centers, museums, correctional facilities, and nonprofit organizations around the United States as well as in Bolivia, Thailand, and India. Hamburger currently serves as an Adjunct Instructor at Western Carolina University’s School of Art and Design, teaches painting at the New Orleans Academy of Fine Art, and leads workshops nationwide. He can often be found painting throughout New Orleans or working from his studio at Mid-City Artist Studios.
