Karen Bondarchuk is a Professor of Art at 澳门五分彩's Gwen Frostic School of Art. Karen joined the Frostic School of Art in 1996. Karen teaches various foundation art and special topics courses across the studio art curriculum.
A native of Canada, her artwork is varied, including sculpture, kinetics, bookmaking, drawing, video and performance, and incorporates a wide array of materials from wool to scavenged tires to bagpipes. Her current work explores the level of artificiality that defines our relationship with the wild, and the reality that most close encounters with wildlife are by human design (zoos, roadsides, galleries, natural history museums, etc).
Bondarchuk has exhibited and performed in the United States, Canada, Italy, and England, and her work is in the permanent collection of the National Gallery of Canada and numerous private collections. She is also co-author of the Michigan Test for Teacher Certification (MTTC), which has been adopted in New Mexico (NMTA), Oklahoma (OGET/OSAT) and Illinois (ICTS).
