Karin Bruckner was born in Zurich Switzerland and studied architecture at the Technical University in Munich, Germany and ETH in Zurich, Switzerland. In 1986 she received her Masters Degree in Architecture from TU Munich, and a Masters Degree in Science from Columbia University in 1990. Bruckner came to Printmaking through Architecture after working in the offices of Richard Meier & Partners and Philip Johnson Architects.. Due to a structure not unlike Architecture's layers in space, Printmaking offered a unique way of re-connecting Bruckner to her life-long passion of creating Art. Her work has been exhibited in galleries around the country, including FibreArtsGallery (Palo Alto, CA), House of Yes (New York, NY), Good Question Gallery (New York, NY), The Brooklyn Collective (New York, NY) and Exhale Gallery (Carson, CA). The artist currently lives and works in New York, NY.
