Speaking & Public Engagement
Public education is central to Rachelle Krieger's practice, reflected in a sustained record of speaking engagements across museums, institutions, and media platforms.. Highlights include a 60-minute "Artist in Conversation" presentation at the Adler Gallery at the Port Washington Public Library (2025), an "Artist in the Gallery" talk and exhibit walkthrough at the Nassau County Museum of Art (2019), and gallery talks at the Heckscher Museum and the NY Design Center's TransForm Gallery. She has been featured on the Ellipses Thinking podcast (2025) and Wild at Art (2022), speaking about her practice and her relationship to the natural world. From 2007 to 2019 she served on the Art Advisory Council for the Adler Gallery at the Port Washington Public Library.
Working with Institutions Rachelle Krieger's work has found a natural home in institutional contexts — museums, libraries, nature centers, corporate environments, and educational programs — where its themes of energy, perception, and the living natural world resonate with mission-driven audiences.
Exhibitions & Lending Krieger's paintings are available for exhibition loans, site-specific installations, and curated group presentations. Her work is particularly well suited to programming around environmental science, ecological awareness, and the intersection of art and natural systems.
Artist Talks & Educational Programming Krieger offers artist talks, studio visits, and classroom engagements for universities, secondary schools, libraries, and museum education departments. Her practice raises accessible, generative questions — What does it mean to see something invisible? How does an artist's curiosity mirror a scientist's? — that translate well across disciplines and age groups.
Corporate & Civic Collections Her paintings bring sustained vitality to public and workplace environments. Works are currently sited in corporate and public spaces throughout the United States. Commissions and curated placements are welcomed.
Residencies & Collaborative Projects Krieger is open to residency opportunities and collaborative projects with organizations whose missions align with environmental stewardship, curiosity, and the wonder of the natural world.

Rachelle Krieger - A Child’s Sense of Wonder
Greg Dowler-Coltman, Ellipses Thinking Podcast, February 2025
“Joyful, curious and optimistic by nature? Absolutely! New York based artist Rachelle Krieger firmly believes that there is something to learn in all situations and through her bold and vibrant, colour-filled and playful visual art she expresses her ever present wonder with the world unfurling all around us.
Her work recently exhibited in a collection described by curator Charles A. Riley II as "devoted to the theme of making the invisible energy of nature visible", was in Krieger's words, a "form of meditation". Whether capturing singular moments of life in her plein art studies, inviting her wildly imaginative night dreams to splash magically across a canvas, or reflecting biodiversity and vitality through capturing natural elements in various stages of life in her newest medium of ceramics, one thing is undeniable. Rachelle Krieger's art is boundless!.”
These In-between Days with Rachelle Krieger
Wild at Art, June 2022
“New York artist Rachelle Krieger is fresh from her solo show at VOLTA NY, where Susan Eley Fine Art featured her recent paintings and ceramics. Her latest work is called “These In-between Days,” an ongoing series of mixed media paintings and works on paper. Her style is enthusiastic with powerful colors, mainly painted in acrylic and spray paint. We talk about how her art can be inspired by literally everything, including invisible forces.”
