Eric Goldberg

Eric Goldberg was born in Bridgeport, Connecticut in 1946. He studied at Parsons School of Design (NYC), The New School for Social Research (NYC), and received his BFA from New York University. His undergraduate degree was concentrated in sculpture; his graduate degree from New Mexico University was in painting and printmaking. His artwork is held in many corporate, public and private collections, including The Boston Athenaeum, General Electric, Crabtree and Evelyn and the Taiwan National Museum of Fine Arts. In the spring of 2003 he retired after twenty years as chair of a college Fine Arts/Design department to pursue his painting and printmaking full-time. His studio/home is located in Mansfield, Connecticut.

Eric Goldberg works in both printmaking and painting. Eric’s paintings are primarily in oil paint and have ranged in size from murals to works that could be described as almost miniatures. His prints are primarily etchings and usually contain a wide range of aquatints, which he hand-burnishes much in the way one would work a mezzotint. His subject matter ranges from still life to landscape to portrait. He usually works a given theme in series, following it simultaneously in numerous medium. Critics and reviewers have described his paintings and prints as “meditative, contemplative and uplifting”.
