MGFA presents: David Rohn

Growing up in Ludington, Michigan, David Rohn was accepted into the University of Michigan College of Architecture and Design on the strength of a portfolio of watercolors, where he earned his Bachelors and Masters in painting and printmaking. Much of his student work was featured in juried shows throughout the Midwest.  As a formative artist he taught first at Windham College as the chair of the art department, then at Drew University, New York University, the National Academy of Design, and Queens College.

Rohn’s ability to speak through watercolor suggests an element of magic in his choice and command of materials and technique. Never intentionally arranged, the objects in Rohn’s compositions create a relationship of inherent balance and established order, bringing harmony and satisfaction to the eye.

Represented artist of Mitchell • Giddings Fine Arts, David Rohn exhibited at MGFA from March 16-April 30 2017. This video recounts his Artist Talk on March 25, 2017.
