Alejandra Seeber
Alejandra Seeber (born 1969, Buenos Aires) is an Argentine painter based in New York. Her work explores the shifting boundaries between abstraction and representation, often through depictions of domestic and architectural interiors that dissolve into layered, vibrant compositions. Seeber’s paintings merge intuition and structure, embracing chance, fragmentation, and spatial ambiguity. Influenced by music, stage design, urban culture, and digital aesthetics, she constructs visual spaces that are both dynamic and unstable. She studied at Pridiliano Pueyrredón School of Fine Arts, participated in the Beca Kuitca program for young artists, in Buenos Aires and attended Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture in Maine. Her work has been shown internationally, including at Americas Society in New York, Museo de Arte Latinoamericano de Buenos Aires (MALBA), Häusler Contemporary, and forms part of collections such as MALBA, the Zabludowicz Collection, and the Staatliche Graphische Sammlung in Munich.she lives in NY since 1999.
