About the Artist:
German-American artist Susanne Schuenke was born in Düsseldorf, Germany, and received her education in Cologne and London, earning her doctorate at the University of Cologne in 1986. Since then she has been living and working successfully in the USA while maintaining strong and lively connections with Europe.
Her fine oil paintings and watercolors possess the technical old-master quality. Her unique stylizations and the rich nuances of her palette enhance her compositions. In the narrative surrealistic artwork of Susanne Schuenke one can find fascinating connections between form and color, discover an animated dialogue, or start a meditative journey into new dimensions. This exhibit will focus on Susanne's Judaic inspired collection.
Dr. Schuenke has presented her works to an international public in one-person and group exhibitions in England, Germany, France, and the United States.
