NEFERTITI GOODMAN (1950 - ) The Aftermath.
Linoleum cut on cream wove paper, 1982. 927x708 mm; 36 1/2x27 7/8 inches, full margins. Signed, titled, dated and numbered 35/125 in pencil, lower margin.
A painter, printmaker and designer, Nefertiti earned her Master of Fine Arts degree at the Rhode Island School of Design. Describing her unique approach to the relief print, art critic Dr. Richard Powell of Duke University described her work as follows: "Embellishing the linoleum's surface with virtually every kind of possible cut, yet leaving areas for visual oasis, (Nefertiti Goodman takes) linoleum cut the most basic of relief mediums over new ground, and to loftier heights."
Nefertiti completed five paintings and seven intricate hand-painted ceramic tile panels which were permanently installed for the new Criminal Justice Center in Philadelphia during the late 90's. This commission project was under the auspices of the Philadelphia Per Cent for Art Program. Nefertiti is also a past recipient of the New Jersey State Council on the Arts Fellowship for printmaking. Her works have been exhibited in parts of the US, Canada, Eastern Europe, South America and Southeast Asia; including the Museum of Fine Arts Boston, DeCordova Museum, Montclair Art Museum, Smithsonian (SITES), the Studio Museum in Harlem, Taipei Museum of Fine Arts, the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, and other noted institutional and corporate collections.
