She received her BFA from the State University of New York at Purchase, and an MFA in Painting and Drawing from The Art Institute of Chicago.
Tegeder’s work employs strategies connected to Post-Minimalism and Twentieth-Century abstraction, often utilizing mathematical, architectural or demographic data to produce an ever-evolving visual vocabulary.
She has had solo gallery exhibitions, both nationally and internationally in Paris, Houston, Los Angeles, Berlin, Chicago,[4] and New York.
In 2011, she was an artist in residence on Governor's Island as part of the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council's Swing Space program.
A fully illustrated hardcover catalog will accompany the exhibition with essays by Barry Schwabsky, and Claire Gilman, the curator from the Drawing Center in NYC.
