Janet Goldner

Janet Goldner is a New York City-based interdisciplinary artist. Her steel sculptures and installations bridge diverse cultures, exploring and celebrating similarities and differences. She also works with photography, video, text, drawing and social projects. Research in the form of immersive fieldwork is important to her work. Annual visits to Mali, for more than two decades, provide inspiration. Janet’s art traces her enduring exploration of sculptural form, her ongoing relationship with African culture, and her lifelong involvement in social activism. Major themes in her work include Mali, (im)migration, and genealogy.
