ANDREA MORGANSTERN
About
In her paintings, Andrea Morganstern fuses elements of the human body, animals and plants into biomorphic forms, using dots as building blocks. By using dots she explores ideas about how things really are as opposed to how they appear to our eyes.
Andrea Morganstern’s work has been featured in solo and group exhibitions
in museums and galleries throughout the United States and internationally, including the Islip Art Museum in East Islip, NY, the Attleboro Arts Museum in Massachusetts, the George Segal Gallery at Montclair University and Bartok 1 Gallery in Budapest, Hungary. In New York City her work has been exhibited at Shelter Gallery, Winkleman Gallery and Capla Kesting Fine Art. She has an upcoming solo exhibition at Shelter Gallery in June, 2024. Her paintings are in numerous collections, including the Masterworks Museum of Art in Bermuda and the Albrecht-Kemper Museum of Art in St. Joseph, MO. Morganstern was born in New York City and studied at The School of Visual Arts and the New York Academy of Art. She lives and works in New York City.
