Biography
Olga Spiegel, who was brought up and trained in Europe, lives and established her studio in New York.
Her work has evolved from the abstract and optical energy fields influences of the 1960s through the later study of the Old Master’s technique with Ernst Fuchs, to her current unique visionary alphabet, which has lately included computer, digital paintings.
Nurtured by Psychedelic Art, European Fantastic Realism, Surrealism, and Science Fiction, her art points to an inner process, a chemical visual interaction where the inner self’s, messages are deciphered through images and symbols taking the viewer into an edgy realm of realism and unnamable forms.
On the wings of improvisation free-flowing images and color create associations to uncover a mysterious universe.
Ancient icons, space-age imagery with metaphysical overtones, that reveal an evolutionary flowering, nature and its organisms populated into a myriad of forms.
Her work has been shown in galleries and private collections in Europe and America and has been cited in many books and publications.
