Colin Adriel Goldberg (born December 23, 1971) is an American artist whose work explores the intersection of painting and digital art. He is acknowledged as the inventor of the art theory term techspressionism [1], which he defined in his 2014 writing The Techspressionist Manifesto as:
An artistic style in which technology is utilized as a means to express emotional experience rather than impressions of the external world. [2]
Goldberg earned a BA in Studio Art from Binghamton University and a MFA in Computer Art from Bowling Green State University. [3] Helen Harrison, Director of the Pollock-Krasner House and Study Center, has compared him to artists such as Jackson Pollock, Max Ernst and Stanley William Hayter in his approach to form and his use of novel mediums. [4] Goldberg, who is of Japanese and Jewish ancestry [3], exhibits the influence of Japanese aesthetics in much of his work, incorporating elements of Japanese calligraphy as well as stylistic qualities associated with 18th and 19th century woodblock printing in Japan. [5]
Recognition[edit]
Goldberg has received several honors including a Pollock-Krasner Foundation Grant[6] and a residency at The Studios of Key West, where he was interviewed by PBS for an episode of the television show Art Loft which aired later that year. [7]
Collaboration[edit]
In 1999 Goldberg created Dreaming Brain, an interactive computer movie [8] in collaboration with artist Steve Miller. This project was sponsored by Thundergulch and funded by the Greenwall Foundation and exhibited at the Equitable Art gallery in New York City.
