Bronx-born artist Colin Goldberg’s work propels the trajectory of Expressionism into the 21st century. As an undergraduate student, the artist studied painting under the noted Abstract Expressionist painter Angelo Ippolito. Goldberg, who is a Pollock-Krasner Foundation grant recipient, coined the term Techspressionism in 2011 to describe his technology-fueled paintings.

In 2020, he initiated the formation of an artist group around the idea with fellow artists Steve Miller, Patrick Lichty, Oz Van Rosen and art historian Helen A. Harrison, the longtime director of the Pollock-Krasner House and Study Center in Springs, New York. Goldberg is recognized for his ongoing role in developing the community of artists that forms the core of this international movement. The community, currently comprised of artists from over 45 countries, continues to grow through the use of the term as a hashtag on social media, with over 80k Instagram posts currently using the hashtag #techpressionism.

In 2022, Goldberg’s large-scale augmented-reality work Kneeling Icon was acquired by the Hearst Corporation. It is the first AR work in the Hearst collection and is permanently installed in Hearst Tower in Manhattan. The artist’s work has been featured in WIRED, The New York Times and PBS. and resides in numerous private, public and corporate collections.
