Submission declined on 14 August 2024 by Urban Versis 32 (talk). This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies. Declined by Urban Versis 32 28 days ago. | ![]() |
Comment: risd.edu is not a reliable source to establish the subject's notability; that seems to be procedurally generated for every staff at that university, and is otherwise routine coverage.Significant coverage of the subject from reliable, independent sources are required per Wikipedia's notability guidelines.

Nancy Friese is a painter-printmaker born in 1948 in Fargo, North Dakota. She holds a BS degree from University of North Dakota, and an MFA in painting and printmaking from Yale University, New Haven, CT.[1] Friese also studied in the graduate painting program at the University of California, Berkeley, and studied both printmaking and painting at the Art Academy of Cincinnati. A professor at Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) and an elected National Academician in the National Academy Museum and School in New York City, she has exhibited both nationally and internationally in 30 solo and 170 group shows.[2][3]
Work
[edit]Friese has consistently worked as a plein air artist for much of her career.
A sense of the local is central to Nancy Friese’s work, which documents places and events that are specific and personal, while offering them up to be shared by the viewer. Friese is a landscape artist, and, though she lives and works most of the year in Rhode Island, she spends several weeks each summer in rural Buxton, North Dakota, on the land her great-grandfather homesteaded when he emigrated from Norway.[4]
She captures images in watercolor and oil or acrylic paints, with prints created through woodcuts, etchings, drypoints and monotypes, and ties visual observations to experience.[3][5] The Boston Globe writes about Friese's Long Summer Light as presenting "the bounty of an old tree's vast summer boughs as they stretch over a honeyed field".[6]
A faculty member at Rhode Island School of Design, Friese has "served as a board member for the College Arts Association, the RISD Museum, North Dakota Museum of Art Foundation, FirstWorks Providence and Buxton in Bloom North Dakota, and has been a repeat juror with the National Endowment for the Arts and Japan US Friendship Commission in Washington, DC".[7][3]
Collections
[edit]Friese's work is held in numerous public and private collections including the Boston Public Library, MA; Florence Griswold Museum, CT[8]; Hammer Museum, UCLA, CA; National Museum of Women in the Arts, Washington, DC[9][10]; Muscarelle Museum of Art, VA; Museum of Fine Arts Boston, MA[11]; the New York Public Library, NY; North Dakota Museum of Art, ND[12]; the RISD Museum, RI; and the Yale University Art Gallery, CT[13], among many others.[7][14][15]
