Susan Roth (1950 | American)
Roth was born in 1950 in Valley Stream, New York. She is an abstract artist known for her wide interest in materials from acrylics to paper and steel in printmaking and collage. Her work can be seen in prestigious collections world wide including Hirschhorn Museum, Smithsonian, Washington DC; Boston Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, Massachusetts; Fort Lauderdale Museum of Art, Fort Lauderdale, Florida; Museum Contemporary Art, Zurich, Switzerland and Museum of Modern Art, Kyoto, Japan.
Roth’s piece “Sacred Heart” which is part of the Art Gallery of Algoma’s permanent collection showcases her unique style, one she is well loved for. Her manipulation of paint and canvas brings her painting to life and turns it into a medium of its own. Roth folds, cuts, bunches and adds to the surface creating a unique terrain.
