Selected works using the hashtag are reposted as Instagram stories each day to the official @Techspressionism Instagram feed. One artist each day is featured in our feed. We will contact you directly regarding addition to the artist index above.

Artists in our index can leverage their inclusion and help support to the movement through the usage of the terms Techspressionism and/or Techspressionist within statements or profiles and linking back to Techspressionism.com where the term is defined. Bringing the term into common usage will help the movement gain visibility and legitimacy within the art establishment and internet at large, as well as boosting Google page rank for both this site and the individual artist websites or profiles.
FOUNDING ARTISTS
Colin Goldberg
Colin Goldberg is an American artist born in the Bronx, New York in 1971. The artist coined the term Techspressionism in 2011 for use as the title of a solo exhibition. It was first described as a movement in this 2014 WIRED article and was elaborated upon in this 2015 PBS interview with the artist. As an undergraduate painting student at at Binghamton University, Goldberg studied under Abstract Expressionist painter Angelo Ippolito. He holds a MFA in Computer Art from BGSU and is a recipient of grants from the Pollock-Krasner Foundation and the New York State Council on the Arts. Goldberg’s works reside in the permanent collections of the Pollock-Krasner House and Study Center, Stony Brook University Hospital and the Islip Art Museum. Goldberg served as a guest panelist for “Abstract Expressionism in the 21st Century Part 2”, a symposium held at the Pollock-Krasner House and Study Center in East Hampton, and was a guest speaker at the Parrish Art Museum in Water Mill, NY for PechaKucha Hamptons in 2019.
Patrick Lichty
Patrick Lichty is an educator, media artist, writer, futurist, curator of over 30 years. He is currently a professor of media design at Zayed University in Abu Dhabi, where he is the Director of the Immersive Media Research Cluster. As an activist and artist, he was part of or worked with the collectives RTMark, Pocha Nostra, The Yes Men, Terminal Time, Second Front, Shared Universe, and Critical Art Ensemble.
Steve Miller
Steve Miller has been working with art, science and technology since 1980. He has collaborated with the 2003 Nobel Laureate in Chemistry, Rod MacKinnon in a project about human protein. He has worked at Brookhaven National Labs and at CERN in Geneva where he lectured to the Theory Group. For a decade, Miller worked on a photographic project about the Amazon. Miller proposed to give Brazil, our planetary lungs, a medical check-up by taking x-rays of the flora and fauna. The project entitled Heath of the Planet has been published as two monographs, Radiographic, and Surf/Skate published by Glitterati Editions. His work has been presented as solo exhibitions in Paris, Hong Kong, Rio, London, Boston , New York City and, most recently, at the National Academy of Sciences in Washington, DC.
Oz Van Rosen
Oz Van Rosen is an artist based in New York and Southampton. Using the underlying technology of photography, her art is created by randomly corrupting, bending and destroying digital data in an image to create an unpredictable aesthetic. By turning pixels into paintbrushes, she pushes the boundaries of photography into new visual possibilities, creating unique images that defer to the whim of technology. In this Beyond Photography interview, Oz describes her work as Abstract Techspressionism. Oz studied art at the New York School of the Arts.
