About the Item

This piece is featured in Bruckner’s 2024 solo exhibition at Susan Eley Fine Art titled, “Keeping Memories”. Artist Biography: Karin Bruckner was born in Zurich, Switzerland and currently lives and works in New York, NY. Bruckner studied architecture at the Technical University in Munich, Germany and ETH in Zurich, Switzerland. She received her Masters Degree in Architecture from TU Munich in 1986 and a Masters Degree in Science from Columbia University in 1990. Bruckner came to printmaking through architecture after working in the offices of Richard Meier & Partners and Philip Johnson Architects. Due to a structure not unlike architecture's layers in space—printmaking offered a unique way of reconnecting Bruckner to her life-long passion of creating art. Her work has been exhibited in galleries around the United States, including Carter Burden Gallery (New York, NY); FibreArtsGallery (Palo Alto, CA); House of Yes (New York, NY); Good Question Gallery (New York, NY); The Brooklyn Collective (New York, NY); and Exhale Gallery (Carson, CA). Her work has sold worldwide and is held in private collections in Europe, South America, Australia and the United States. Bruckner is represented by Susan Eley Fine Art (New York, NY and Hudson, NY) and has shown at both of the Gallery’s locations. Artist Statement: Printmaking became a focus in my work in 2006. I found the medium a congenial way of creating art given my professional background in architecture. Its unique combination of creative flow and process requires a structured, sequenced way of thinking in layers, shapes and colors not unlike architectural plans. Printmaking has allowed me to gradually make my way from the strictures of architecture to a looser form of creative expression, while engaging all of my artistic and design skills. Over the years, constant experimentation has propelled my unique monotypes from a graphic into a more painterly direction, thoroughly embedded and complexly layered visual landscapes of considerable depth. My work is process driven, responding to the materials and techniques at hand, resulting in a widely varied yet distinctive portfolio. This led me to a consummate Work on Paper practice that encompasses repurposing and engages paper spatially–from small intimate works to larger scale explorations. At the core of the dialogue between the artist and the work is an attempt to push media to their limits, straddling the lines between printmaking, drawing, painting, collage, installation and sculpture in an authentically mixed media way. Printmaking carries with it the element of surprise and the inevitability of the “happy accident” which I credit for immensely expanding my artistic sensibilities. The work evolves and resides in the space created by Pull and Push.
