Elizabeth Hazan is a New York based visual artist. Her aerial landscape paintings mix gestural topography with elements of modernist abstraction. The work depicts a heightened version of nature off-kilter, evoking a charged atmosphere, familiar to the viewer yet verging on the surreal. Hazan was awarded a fellowship to the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture and has twice been a resident of Yaddo. Recent shows include Sundown at the Madoo Conservancy in Sagaponack, NY, High Noon, at the Duck Creek Art Center in Springs, NY, Heat Wave at Johannes Vogt Gallery in New York City, Body to Land at Turn Gallery, NY, and Psychedelic Landscape at Eric Firestone Gallery in New York City. Her work has been written about in Hyperallergic, Forbes, Two Coats of Paint, Art Critical, The Brooklyn Rail and the Art Newspaper. She was born and raised in New York City and attended Bryn Mawr College and the New York Studio School. She serves as the director and founder of Platform Project Space in Brooklyn, NY.
