Suzanne Goldberg

Suzanne Goldberg (1940–1999) was a New Zealand painter, born in Auckland, New Zealand. Goldberg graduated from Elam School of Fine Arts in 1961 with honours and awarded the Joe Raynes Scholarship in her final year. Goldberg's paintings combined approaches to abstract and representational art. She experimented with painting techniques and effects including washing paint off with turpentine; a process called decalcomania (also used by the Surrealists), in which paper is used to apply paint by taking impressions from paint layered on board. Known for landscapes of New Zealand, Goldberg has also painted portraits.
