Ursula Strozynski
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ursula Strozynski (born 11 January 1954 in Dingelstädt) is a German painter and graphic artist.
Ursula Strozynski studied architecture at the Technische Universität Dresden from 1972 to 1976. From 1976 to 1977 she worked on the project planning of a large Berlin company. Since then she has lived in Berlin-Pankow as a freelance artist. In 1992, together with Marguerite Blume-Cárdenas, Elli Graetz, Annet Gröschner, Gisela Kurkhaus-Müller and Nuria Quevedo, among others, she founded the Künstlerinnen-Initiative Xanthippe e.V.
Through her studies and her work afterwards, she has a preference for graphics, etchings and paintings of industrial plants and buildings as well as other architecturally interesting themes. As a long-standing lecturer at the Marburg Summer Academy up to the present day (2012), she passes on her experience. Her works were part of the Marburger Kunstverein's group exhibition Bildersuchen.[1]

Since 1981 she has had regular personal exhibitions and has also taken part in international exhibitions.[2] Her works can be found in the Nationalgalerie Berlin, the Kunstarchiv Beeskow, the Kunstsammlung Berlin Marzahn-Hellersdorf, the Stiftung Stadtmuseum Berlin, the Ludwig Galerie Schloss Oberhausen and the Jüdisches Museum New York.
