Jane Rosen

Written in Stone

May 2 - Jun 29 | opening reception: Thursday 05/02, 5-8pm
LADDER MORANDI | 31881
  • download press release

Jane Rosen creates the paintings and sculptures for which she has become so well known in a large light-filled studio perched high above the Pacific ocean. It is a quiet place with more animal neighbors than human ones, but that is the way she prefers it. Drawing artistic inspiration from sources as diverse as Morandi, da Vinci, Egyptian funerary art, and Asian calligraphy, Rosen deftly weaves together art and nature. She is a keen observer of her environment and feels deeply connected to the animals that share this place with her. Her drawings and burnished stone and glass surfaces echo the layered textures and colors of the landscape, and her majestic bird and animal sculptures celebrate the potent relationship between animal and human realms.

  • About
    Jane Rosen

  • view profile

Jane Rosen has the unique ability to evoke both enigma and precision with her work. Her chosen subjects–animals wild and tame–are used as vehicles to explore their instincts and natural intelligence. For Rosen, understanding animal nature is a key to understanding human nature. She is fascinated with cultures such as the Eskimos, Native Americans, and Egyptians. Rosen excels across several different mediums including sculpture, painting, and drawing, and traces of all three can be found in each artwork; upon close observation a sculpture has been painted or a drawing has had several layers of wax sculpted onto its surface.

Rosen was born in New York City where she grew up and began her career as an artist. Despite finding early success in galleries and a prestigious teaching position in the city, Rosen found herself captivated by the accessibility of nature on a visit to the West Coast. She eventually relocated permanently to San Gregorio, California, where she keeps her studio and resides on a horse ranch frequently visited by the birds you see in her work.

Rosen was recently selected by the American Academy of Arts and Letters for inclusion in their prestigious 2014 Annual Invitational in New York. Rosen has taught at numerous elite institutions including the School of Visual Arts and Bard College in New York, LaCoste School of the Arts in France, Stanford University and the University of California at Berkeley. Rosen’s work has been reviewed in the New York Times, ArtForum, Art in America, and Art News. Her work has been exhibited across the United States and is in numerous public and private collections including the Albright-Knox Art Gallery, the Aspen Art Museum, the Brooklyn Museum, the Chevron Corporation, the collection of Grace Borgenicht, JP Morgan Chase Bank, the Luso American Foundation, the Mallin Collection, the Mitsubishi Corporation, and the Museum of Contemporary Art, San Diego. She exhibits in galleries around the United States.
