Outside of her art Zuckerman-Hartung was one of the original organizers of Ladyfest, [1] Ladyfest is a not-for-profit music and art festival that embraces the work of women in the fine arts. Since the original Ladyfest in 2000 it has spread to a global scale, with events held in countries around the world.
Zuckerman-Hartung's style is characterized by experimentation and attention to materials and casualist techniques. [13] In a review of "Queen", a show with Dana DeGiulio at Manhattan's Lyles and King gallery, the New York Times called Zuckerman-Hartung's work "a firestorm of techniques and effects: bleaching, dyeing, staining and sewing linen, silk and humble dropcloths". [4] Hyperallergic remarked that "her abstract paintings often extend above the surface and outside the frame" and reflect "a deep engagement with process, material, and with painting’s long history." [14]
Casualism is a 21st-century trend in art which uses color, composition, and balance to produce works with an unusual rather than obviously visually appealing appearance.

She also painted nudes and portraits and increasingly abstract and textured art in later life. She suggested creating work for juried shows and annuals was not the way "to be a great artists!" Instead, she began making work that felt was more expressive of her ideas. In the sixties she began making work that she termed "sculptural relief oil paintings." This involved a process of embedding objects such as seeds, branches, glass, and string into the paint. During the period she was producing more abstract work she had solo exhibitions in New York, Detroit, Milwaukee, Miami, Paris, and London.
