Deborah
Kruger

Patterning, decoration and fiber have influenced Deborah Kruger’s work since her training in textile design at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City.  She has taught, lectured and exhibited her artwork in museums and galleries throughout the US, Europe and Mexico since the 1980s. 

Recent career highlights include a 2021 solo exhibition titled Plumas at PRPG.mx gallery in Mexico City.  A larger solo show titled Turbulence: Birds, Beauty, Language & Loss will travel to the Visions Art Museum, San Diego, CA in 2023.  

In 2021 Kruger’s work appeared in two international Biennals: Abandon is in the Rufino Tamayo Bienal that is traveling throughout Mexico. Kimono was included in the Art Textile Biennial in Australia.

Kruger has attended residencies at the Millay Colony for the Arts, Austerlitz, NY, La Porte Peinte Centre, Noyers-sur-Serein, France and a recent residency at Hypatia-in-the-Woods, Shelton, WA.

The artist maintains team-based studios in the lakeside village of Chapala, Mexico, and in the vibrant art community of Durham, North Carolina, USA.
