Charlotte Rodenberg received her MFA at Tyler School Art. Her research and community projects are supported by the numerous VCUarts Dean’s Grant and a VCUarts Space Grant at The Anderson. Rodenberg has international exhibitions and community projects in Portland, Seattle, Arizona, and Mexico. She currently teaches at VCU. While Drawing is always at the base of her studio practice she has employed screen printing in recent years to convey concepts of media misinformation and social concern. Her work aims to create social awareness and dialog around contemporary issues. Rodenberg's work is represented by Page Bond Gallery.
