Barbara Rogers, Artist
Barbara Rogers is a force of nature, a loving mother and a prolific artist living in Tucson. Her work explores the ideas of paradise, life, destruction vulnerability and beauty. Barbara paints because the act of painting is direct. For her painting is just another truth. She makes paintings to transcend daily life. Her paintings evoke the sublime and reaffirm the existence of beauty. She hopes her paintings remind us the critical importance of cherishing the earth. She explores ideas of paradise, life, destruction, vulnerability and beauty via abstraction in her work. Barbara has exhibited nationally and internationally. She had over 42 solo exhibitions in San Francisco, Seattle, New York, Chicago, Pittsburgh, Scottsdale, Germany, South Korea and the United Arab Emirates. Her work is in public and private collections in The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, The Crocker Museum, The Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art, The Tucson Museum of Art, Arizona State University Museum of Art, The Oakland Museum of Art, and The San Jose Museum of Art.
