AN interview by Dario Rutigliano, curator and Melissa C. Hilborn, curator. arthabens.biennale@europe.com
1) Hello Nadine and welcome to ART Habens. Before starting to elaborate about your works we would like to invite our readers to visit www.nadinerobbinsart.com in order to get a wide idea about your artistic production and we would start this interview with a couple of questions about your background: while largely self-taught as a painter, you have a solid formal training in Graphic Design and after having earned your BFA from the State University of New York at New Paltz, you launched your successful career, that you later closed to devote yourself full time to painting.
How does your previous career influence your evolution as an artist? In particular, how does your cultural substratum due to American culture direct the trajectory of your current artistic research?
Nadine Robbins: While shifting from a graphic design career to working as a full-time painter may seem like a significant change—certainly, it would have a generation or two ago, when there was a strict division between “commercial” and “fine” art—for me it was a natural, seamless evolution. My expertise in graphic design has been enormously helpful in my painting.

Exhibition shot of Shrine : at the Intersection of Object and Spectacle on the July cover of Carousel Magazine
Anthony Brunelli Fine Arts artist, Jessica Fridrich, wins the Scenic, Seasons & Landscape category with her entry Bisti Wilderness Area. The category was apart of the larger Share the Experience photo contest hosted by the National Park Foundation.
As the artist stated in her submission, “Photography is about sharing, telling a story of the landscape, and communicating our own emotional state with the hope that the images will motivate others to pick up their backpacks and explore on their own to witness the beauty in person. The hoodoos sit next to the (more) famous Bisti Wings, which I originally planned to shoot but was repeatedly drawn to the hoodoos because of their geometry and beautiful texture. When the Moon rose after sunset, the composition became almost obvious. I believe this photo conveys the same sense of bewilderment and awe I felt when seeing the formations for the first time. It is about geometry. The trapezoidal arrangement of the main subjects and a loose assortment of geometrical shapes make it look like in a surrealistic painting.”
