About The Artist
Andy Zaller
andyzoo@cox.net
Andy Zaller was
born, raised and educated in New York City. During his childhood, he
was constantly exposed to the myriad of cultural experiences in the
arts that this great city offered. By the time he reached
adulthood, his main interest was in the visual arts. He found
inspiration not only in the works of artists, but in his
environment. Travels to other parts of the country and abroad
intensified his quest to discover and develop his own artistic
vision.
His educational
background includes a BA (Queens College, New York City), a Masters
in Art (Hunter College, New York City), graduation from The School
of Visual Arts (New York City), and an Ed.D (The University of
Tulsa).
He dedicated his
professional career in art education as a teacher, developer of
visual arts programs in high schools and at the university level,
and as an evaluator and presenter for the College Board Studio Art
Program. At the same time, he continued to produce and exhibit art.
Over the
years, he had numerous opportunities to participate in group and
solo exhibitions. His one-man shows were held in The Performing
Arts Center in Tulsa, at Oklahoma State University (Tulsa campus)
and in The University of Tennessee, Chattanooga. Group shows
included the annual Tulsa Mayfest Invitational, a special art
educators’ exhibit in the Philbrook Museum in Tulsa and in various
galleries. His recently published book, Dancers, is a
photographic and artistic exploration into the world of dance. |
