Artist's statement: Diane Burko’s practice is at the intersection of Art, Science, and the Environment focused on climate change. Born in Brooklyn, Burko graduated from Skidmore College with a B.S. in art history and painting. She earned an MFA in painting from the University of Pennsylvania. Burko was a professor at Community College of Philadelphia until 2000, also teaching at Princeton University, ASU, and PAFA.
