Photography is literally painting with light.
Having started in the mid to late 1970s as a young fine-art black and white photographer, Rosenzweig learned to be responsible for developing her own film and printing her own black and white silver gelatin photographs. She became quite accomplished having combined her innate artist's eye and the skills of the camera. Over the most recent years, she has ventured into digital color imagery allowing her to synthesize her fine art photography and her abstract expressionist paintings and prints.
Born in New York City, raised outside of Chicago, many of her best gifts have been cameras. First, at a single-digit age, her Kodak Instamatic, complete with magic flashcubes from her maternal Grandmother to her beloved Olympus OM1, her high school graduation gift in 1975, which started her on the artist’s journey. This was a simple and completely manual film camera which she says “I would still be using it today if film wasn’t virtually obsolete and that my Oly didn’t owe me even one more photograph after all these years of faithful creative service.”
Having lived for over 30 years on the Central Coast of California in Carmel and Monterey, Rosenzweig made aliyah to Israel in 2011 and now lives in Haifa. She says “now I live in the original Carmel”.
Rosenzweig has had the opportunity to exhibit her work throughout the United States, abroad and here in Israel, where she received an artist grant from the state in 2012.
