WENDY SHUSTER
is an exhibiting visual artist based in Hudson, NY. Her work can be found in collections in the US, Canada, Mexico and Europe. She is deeply moved by her recent charcoal-painting explorations with modern dancers, including Julie West (Canada), Mireille Feyzeau (France), Eric Ellul (France)and Sondra Loring (USA), and filmmaker, Jean Marc Lariviere (Canada). She has found many sources of inspiration in the art and art-making of artists of all kinds in diverse regions of the world. Art residencies in Mexico, Paris, Bordeaux, and Ghana have inspired further growth and exploration. Shuster has taught drawing, painting and sculpture for 18 years. She founded and then has directed a teaching studio in the Hudson Valley for over 15 years, and, in 2004, expanded its reach to NYC. She has also taught through independent art programs in Montana and Hudson Valley community colleges, and now teaches at Pratt Institute and CUNY-Hunter in NYC. The most compelling art study she experienced was during four years of advanced work with Nicholas Buhalis in his Woodstock and NYC studios, with additional study at the Sorbonne-Paris, Bard College, Art Students League and Pratt Institute, among others.

Art and art-making open our eyes, and stir our hearts and our minds in unexpected ways. They are vital resources for the individual and the community. The care and intelligence and sensitivity that we bring to the seeing and the shaping of our work have reverberations in the world in which it lives and we live. That this reverberation exists, there is no question. The question lies in the quality of this reverberation.

“The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed.”
- Albert Einstein

"You can't be neutral on a moving train."
