Dee Solin is an abstract artist. Her precise hard-edge geometric and biomorphic compositions are inspired by patterns, space and light found in nature. For her, abstraction is a way not only of seeing but it is a particular mindset, a way of understanding the world, a way of being.

I suffered from dyslexia as a child but managed to keep it secret. Too proud to tell anyone about my reading issues, I built a photography darkroom and turned to art as a way to express ideas and so began a lifelong passion for the visual image and non-verbal communication.

Graduating from the San Francisco Art Institute, in 1976, with a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) degree, Dee returned to New York City where she worked at Young and Rubicam Advertising Agency and in Fine Fragrance Marketing and new product development at Revlon Inc., before founding her own Creative Development Company with offices in Westport, Connecticut and later in London, England where she worked on promotions directly with Vivienne Westwood, Virgin Records and Harrods.

She subsequently moved to the south of France and opened a private art studio where she created large scale color field paintings.

While visiting the United States in the mid 1990’s she met her future husband and re-settled in Manhattan. Solin earned her Master of Fine Arts (MFA) degree at the School of Visual Arts in 2017.

She exhibited in prominent New York City Galleries since the early 2000’s, the Andre Zarre Gallery (Chelsea), Sideshow Gallery (Williamsburg), Flatiron Gallery and Phyllis H. Mason Gallery (Manhattan), to name a few. Her work is in private collections in the USA and Europe. Most recently Dee exhibited during Art Basel Week at Red Dot Miami winning an award for Best New Artist at Red Dot.

Today, Dee divides her time between New York and Florida where she volunteers as Resident Artist at the Artist Studio Workshops in Aventura Florida.
