About

Geraldine Neuwirth attended American University before moving to LA, where she studied under the artist and UCLA professor Martin Lubner for six years. Her work has been influenced by Elizabeth Murray, Frank Stella, Terry Winters, and Lee Bontencou, to name a few. She handles paper in such a way that is only learned over time with a mature hand and a unique vision compiled from a life full of experiences. The works on paper have increased in volume and scale to incorporate wall constructions that create a floating effect.

Recent exhibitions include a solo show with united UTA artist space, solo show with Lauri Firstenberg in Los Angeles, The Theater of Balancing Energy’ at Hidell Brooks Gallery (Charlotte, NC), ‘How Many Miles to Babylon’ at C24 Gallery (NY), curated by Peter Frank, a site-specific wall construction at LAXart (LA), Waterfall Mansion curated by Kate Shin (NY), and a solo show at Wendt Gallery (NY). She was awarded special recognition by the National Museum of Women in the Arts and the Southern California Council. Her work has been collected widely nationally and internationally; notable collections include TOTAL Museum of Contemporary Art (South Korea), Kate Shin Collection, Joan and Michael Spector, and Dori Peterman Mostov.

Neuwirth works out of her studio at Mana Contemporary in Jersey City and resides in NYC.
