Lyndon House Arts Center Announces Works by Margo Newmark Rosenbaum Featured in Two Exhibits

The Lyndon House Arts Center announces two new exhibits by artist Margo Newmark Rosenbaum on view through October 7, 2022.

Margo Newmark Rosenbaum has worked alongside her husband Art Rosenbaum, for over 50 years, using her camera to document his field recording sessions and other artistic endeavors. With a keen eye, she has captured intimate images of musicians, painters, collectors, and children. A selection of Margo’s photographs from her book, Drawing with Light will be on view in the North Gallery.

All the while, Margo has maintained a strong painting practice. She first studied under the legendary Bay Area Figurative artists Richard Diebenkorn and Elmer Bischoff, earning a BFA in painting from the San Francisco Art Institute before continuing her studies in photography, earning her MA at the University of Iowa. 

With a courageous palette and brushwork reminiscent of the German Expressionists, Margo’s mostly figurative paintings include domestic scenes alive with real and imaginary animals.

Margo Newmark Rosenbaum will be giving a lecture on Third Thursday Art Night, July 21, 6:00 pm.

All exhibitions and programs are free of charge and open to the public.  Exhibitions are on view during regular gallery hours Tuesday and Thursday 10:00 a.m. – 8:00 p.m., Wednesday, Friday and Saturday 10:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.  The Lyndon House Arts Center is closed on University of Georgia home football game days. Children must be accompanied by an adult.
