This is my studio room in my Upper West Side apartment, at 77th street & Broadway to be exact. Although I have worked here for only a little over a year, the UWS is where I grew up, and lived until I was in my early 20s. I am a creature of habit, and the…
My studio for the past ten years has been located in Building 30, part of the Brooklyn Navy Yard Industrial Park, in Fort Greene, Brooklyn. The building was constructed for horse carriages during the antebellum era. After decades of neglect, it was renovated (around 2000) and commercially leased to artists only. But the vestiges of…
A studio is a meeting place between heaven and earth. It is all good. My studio is located in Tribeca. I’ve been in this studio since 2009. I work usually from late morning on. The Studio of Bruce Dorfman
I live in Ellicott City, Maryland, a small mill town to the southwest of Baltimore. I have been working in this space for over fifteen years.
My studio is about 800 square feet. I moved into this building in 2006, first on the third floor. A year later I moved to the fifth and top floor for the opportunity of having a north skylight built. From 1974 to 2005 my studio was the dining room of an eight-room apartment on West…

My studio is on the Upper West Side. I’ve been in this space for several years and usually work from late morning to evening.
I moved into my studio in November 1969. Over these forty-four years I’ve painted many separate groups and series of paintings. In the early 70s, when I was showing at the David Whitney Gallery, I was making my stain/band paintings. By 1973, when I joined the Andre Emmerich Gallery, I began a group of paintings…
My studio is a great space and big for New York City, 4,400 square feet, but it’s never big enough. I live and work here and that’s the way I like it. I get up in the morning and go see what the previous day’s work looks like. I’ve been in SoHo long enough to…
Over the past thirty-five years, I have had five studios in New Jersey, Brooklyn, and Queens. For the past seven years, I’ve maintained a studio in Sunset Park, Brooklyn. I draw from life—from direct observation and from experience. I do countless drawings and oil sketches as I set out the concept for a painting. I…
