This biography from the Archives of AskART:
|  Originally an abstract artist, Rosemarie Beck changed stylistically
when she began portraying realistic subject matter, through a unique
form of Impressionism, in the early 1950s.
Beck studied at Oberlin College in Ohio, and New York University and
Columbia University in New York City. She dedicated many years of
her career to teaching painting at colleges and art institutions in
Connecticut and New York.
In 1967, and again in 1979, Beck was awarded a grant from
Ingram-Merrill. She has had solo exhibitions in New York City
which were held by the Poindexter Gallery, Ingber Gallery, and the
Peridot Gallery. Her work has also been displayed at the Whitney
Museum of American Art in New York City; National Academy and Institute
of Arts and Letters, New York; Art Institute of Chicago, Illinois; and
the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts in Philadelphia.
Rosemarie Beck’s artwork is part of the permanent collections at
institutions including the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York;
State University of New York, New Paltz; Vassar College in
Poughkeepsie, New York; and the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden
in Washington, D.C.
