Harry Roseman is a sculptor, photographer, draftsman, practitioner of web based works, and professor of art at Vassar College where he currently chairs the Department of Art.
In addition to having had many solo exhibitions, Roseman has produced a number of major commissioned public sculptures.
In 1990, the artist was commissioned to produce a sculpture for the Metropolitan Transit Authority’s Arts for Transit program. Under the auspices of this public/private cooperative, Harry Roseman produced a 71-foot-long bronze sculptural relief titled “Subway Wallâ€. The piece is a depiction of a landscape integrated within the architecture of the corridor and references aspects of its ascending and descending structure, located directly under the J.P. Morgan Chase headquarters at 60 Wall Street in New York City.
After four years in development, another sculpture titled “Curtain Wall†was installed in 2001 at the International Air Terminal at John F. Kennedy International Airport in NYC. The 600-foot-long sculpture depicts cloth and curtains, suggesting wind movement, clouds, and the sky.
One prominent area of Harry Roseman’s career involves photographic images later adapted as web-based projects including “Self-Portraitsâ€, “Visitors: a Journalâ€, and “Groups: a Web Projectâ€.
