In her own words, Churchill elaborates, “My art is not about the mark. The works are related to subject, memory of thoughts, perceptions, images, ideas, and concepts. It is a form of visual thinking, which, through freedom of association arrives at a message of realization.” Angiola Churchill is a professor emeritus of New York University and the former Head and Chair of the Department of Art and Arts Professions – 1975-2005. She was the founder and director of the New York University Studio Arts Masters Program in Venice, Italy – 1974-2006; and co-director of ICASA, the International Center for Advanced Studies in Art, 1970-1980.
