Hanneline Røgeberg, Visiting Lecturers Series, Fall 2007
Tuesday, September 4, 2007Hanneline Røgeberg: November 14, 6:30 PM, Meadows Museum, SMU
Norwegian-born artist Hanneline Røgeberg works mostly in painting exploring the possibilities and limitations of figuration, skin being the key element. She believes that the information gathered by touching another person is equally important to that gained through sight. In her work, touching becomes a vital metaphor for a profound and meaningful kind of communication, which requires a deep level of trust. She has exhibited nationally and internationally with one person shows at Contemporary Art Center, Cincinnati, Vancouver Art Museum and Henie-Onstad Kunst Senter, Oslo, and group shows at MIT List Center, Whitney Museum, Aldrich Museum and National Academy of Arts and Letters, among others. Røgeberg received her B.F.A. at the San Francisco Art Institute and her M.F.A. at Yale. She received a WESTAF-NEA Fellowship in 1996, a Guggenheim fellowship in 1999 and an Anonymous Was a Woman grant in 2003. Røgeberg teaches painting and has served as Graduate Director for the Mason Gross School of the Arts since 2002 and is currently based in Brooklyn, NY. Prior to Rutgers, she taught at University of Washington, Cooper Union, and Yale University School of Art.
