BIO
Meredith Rosier creates drawings that reflect her examination of the interaction between exactitude and vagueness. Employing tonality to sustain the apprehension of the picture plane and to slow the process of categorical recognition, she courts the dialogue of abstraction.
Rosier has studied drawing at Yale University School of Art, and was awarded a full scholarship for the Masters of Fine Arts Degree from the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, Philadelphia. She was mentored by Jacob Landau until his death and by Irving Petlin of Paris, France. She was awarded residencies to The Winchester School of Art, Winchester, England; The Tangier American Legation Museum, Tangier, Morocco; The Vermont Studio School, Johnson, Vermont and Lacoste School of Art, Lacoste Vaucluse, France.
Her drawings reside in museum collections such as the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts Museum, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Weatherspoon Art Museum (Dillard Collection of Art on Paper), Greensboro, North Carolina; Arkansas Art Center: Arkansas Museum of Art (Drawing Collection), Little Rock, Arkansas; Italian Consulate Collection, Italy; and The Tangier American Legation Museum, Tangier, Morocco. She is the Recipient of the Sally Jacobs/Phoebe Towbin Award, Woodstock Artists Association and Museum, Woodstock, New York.
Publications include: 560 Broadway: A New York Collection at Work 1991-2006, Fifth Floor Foundation, New York City, Yale University Press; the online AboutDrawing.org: Fifth Floor Foundation, New York City; Pharos: New Poetry, Paris; Blueline: Poetry and Prose, New York; The Catskill Mountain Foundation : The Guide, New York and most recently Henry : Premiere Issue, A Hudson Valley Journal of Creative Expression, New York.
Professional Organizations include former Chair of the Exhibition Committee and Board Member of the Woodstock Artists Association and Museum, Woodstock, New York and Member of the National Association of Women Artists, New York City. She is represented by Kentler International Drawing Space, The Kentler Flatfiles, Brooklyn, New York; Chace Randall Gallery, Andes, New York and exhibits internationally.
Rosier is an Instructor of Drawing at the Woodstock School of Art, Woodstock, New York. Entitled courses are Abstraction and Drawing: Interpretation and Form and Abstraction and Large Scale Drawing as well as Critique Studies.
