Biography

Rosemarie McGoldrick trained in sculpture at Hornsey, Chelsea and Goldsmiths, now working in all art media. Her sculptures are floor- and wall-based works, calling on art traditions of monumentality, duration and the monochrome. Much of her recent work has been around the idea of sculpture as drawing. Her subjects range from style, decoration and monumentality to animals, landscape and geology. Testing stuff out - looking at what the third dimension of a sculptural drawing might do to an interior. At how silhouette might achieve any sort of plasticity. And at how objets behave as drawings in front of a white wall, in an era that prefers installed identity? 

Rosemarie teaches on and leads the MFA Fine Art course at London Metropolitan University. She has organised three conferences and art exhibitions at London Met around art and animal-human studies – the Animal Gaze (2008), The Animal Gaze Returned (2011) and the Animal Gaze Constructed (2020).
