Biographical Sketch
June Julian creates works that address human and environmental themes of imbalance and resilience through the use of diverse media, from studio fine arts to new genres. Her practice is interdisciplinary and collaborative and has included partnerships in Archaeology, Virtual Worlds, Fine Arts, Education and Ecology. She has received numerous grants and awards including two Explorers Club Expedition Flag Awards for her Art/Archaeology Climate Change research in Scotland with Double Diamond Archaeology™, a grant from the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management, for her Arroyo as Metaphor™ erosion abatement project in New Mexico, and a Fulbright Grant in the Netherlands, among others.
Dr. Julian received her Bachelor's, Master's and Doctorate degrees in Art, and studied at Pennsylvania State Universities and New York University. She has been on the Graduate Art faculty of The School of Visual Arts in New York City and she was a Visiting Professor in the Master's program at Ohio University where she pioneered early Ecology Art distance learning. Dr. Julian was an Associate Professor at The University of the Arts in Philadelphia and directed the Master's degree program in Educational Media. As the Education Manager of the Rubin Museum of Himalayan Art in New York City, she created the Great Tanka collaborative project, among her many popular community initiatives there.
Writing extensively on the visual arts and on technology, her publications include art reviews, her projects in virtual worlds, ecology research data visualization, online course design, virtual art teaching and her numerous internet ecology projects. Most notably, A World Community of Old Trees – An Eco-Art Project, is recognized as the first doctoral study in art education, and possibly in the education discipline itself, that collected and transmitted data exclusively on the World Wide Web. Her extensive exhibition record continues to include galleries in the U.S. and abroad, and her paintings are in several museum collections. Dr. Julian currently divides her time between New Jersey and Santa Fe, New Mexico.
