Liz Dexheimer’s paintings and works on paper have been exhibited widely throughout the eastern United States. Her work, including commissioned pieces, is in numerous public, private and corporate collections around the country and in southeast Asia, including The State of Connecticut, Charlesbank Capital Partners, Four Seasons Hotels, Frontier Communications, Hudson Insurance, J.W. Marriott (Essex House), J.W. Nordstrom, Inc., Marina Bay Sands, MasterCard, PSG Equity, Ritz Carlton and United Peoples Bank.
A native of Manhattan, Ms. Dexheimer currently resides in Washington, CT, where she maintains a painting studio. She creates her monotypes with the assistance of master printer Marina Ancona at 10 Grand Press in Brooklyn and in Santa Fe.
She studied at Oberlin College, the School of Visual Arts and Parsons School of Design. She is affiliated with several galleries in the eastern US.
The work included as part of the Litchfield Judicial Courthouse acquisitions, as with my work in general, is a reaction to the natural environment. I use what I find compelling about specific elements or locations as a point of departure to convey something more abstract and to evoke a sense of place. My emphasis is on suggested form and motion, the interplay of rhythms and patterns, and the narrative ambiguity created through line, shape, color, and gesture.
1% of the cost of construction for publicly accessible CT state buildings is set aside for the Art in Public Spaces Program and CT Artist Collection.
