Arnold Iger

 

Arnold Iger has shaped his creative life for over 25 years, exploring and synthesizing visual media including printmaking, film, video, maskmaking, puppetry and design. As an accomplished visual artist, his mastery of a range of visual media contributes depth to each. His recent visual images combine his interest in architectural history with experiments in printmaking techniques. The resulting monotypes are a synthesis of contemporary design sensibilities with past visual traditions.

 

After years of study and travel, including two years at San Francisco's Academy of Art, three years in filmmaking and painting at the prestigious San Francisco Art Institute, and a term at Japan's Oomato Foundation studying traditional Japanese art forms. Iger launched his career as a fine artist and has established a reputation as a painter, printmaker and in mixed-media works.
