Caterina Verde (born Kathryn Greene) is a visual artist of both American and French nationalities who currently lives and works in New York City.
As Matthew Rose (a freelance journalist and artist who has written for The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal) commented in 2004:[2] When viewing Verde's work -- a range of video, painting, photography and photomontage — I am often reminded of my ability to “see” anything at all, for there is in her artistic enterprise an affective inward and outward movement, an aesthetic inhaling and exhaling, with overtones of the apocalypse.
She also worked with Radetzki on "Enigma of a Litmus Test", which was part of a live stream at artist, Hope Sandrow's, "On the Road Open Air Gallery.
Ebon Fisher, when describing Verde's work, said:[5] Caterina continuously pushes back and forth between curatorial projects and formal creative expression, agitating numerous lines between the two.
[6] The artists that Verde curated at The Kitchen included: OM2 - Nocturnal Architecture; Cook County Theater Department; Shelly Mars; Fiona Templeton; David Hykes; Jackson Mac Low and Anne Tardos; Brendan de Vallance; Mike Ballou; Alexander Viscio; Jens Brand; Alexandre Perigot; Daria Fain; Terrence Mintern; Cabaret of Cruelty; Ham and Egg; and Geoff Selinger.
The Bomb magazine website has a video excerpt from Antenna TV, featuring a reading by the poet, David Rattray, who passed away in 1993.
[7] More recently, Verde spearheaded an online performance site, "Strange Positioning Systems”, which was initiated from a grant from Artspace in New Haven, Connecticut.
To this end, her photographs have appeared in numerous publications including The New York Times,[9] Le Figaro,[10] and the East Hampton Star.
Verde's grandfather, Kenneth Greene, was a billboard painter who had a studio in Times Square; he was also the art director of the Roxy Theatre.
