Deborah Gross-Zuchman, a Philadelphia painter, received a Bachelor's Degree in Art Education from Temple University and a Master's Degree in Painting from the Goddard Graduate Program of Norwich University. She was an Art Demonstration Teacher and taught in the Philadelphia Public Schools for thirty-five years. She also works as a Project Manager for the Philadelphia Mural Arts Program.
Gross-Zuchman travels each summer with her husband, Philip Zuchman, also a painter, to various places in the United States and abroad to paint the landscape en plein air.
In the studio, Gross-Zuchman concentrates on the technique of collage, using cut up papers that she has painted with an array of beautiful colors creating interesting and surprising effects with the brush and palette knife. The subject matter ranges from abstract to representational.
She has also had a book of her poems and paintings about war, Windows Into War, published by Abingdon Square Publishers, NY in 2010. Seder for the 21st Century, a Passover Haggadah with emphasis on social justice and freedom, illustrated with her collages, is available upon request.
