About the Item

Charcoal, acrylic mixed media As a feminist artist, Audrey Anastasi's first commitment is to painting other women, the human face, and figure. Whether working with figurative descriptions or with the abstract use of materials, she approaches all her subjects directly and with abandon. Additionally, in her quest to discover and reveal what is most essential, the drawing aspect of these images is created with her non-dominant left hand. "This drawing was created first in the presence of a live model, working quickly, in charcoal and pastel, and again, later, alone in the studio, working with the intersection of disciplined control and randomized instinct." ABOUT the artist: Audrey Frank Anastasi is a prolific feminist artist, working in painting, drawing, collage, mixed media, & printmaking. She is also curator, gallerist, educator and arts advocate. Most of Ms. Anastasi's figurative works are painted with her non-dominant left hand. She has created large bodies of works of birds, animals and birch trees. She has had 20 solo & 200 group shows. Her "ref-u-gee" series will be shown in 2020 at Medgar Evers College in collaboration with the Valentine Museum of Art, Brooklyn. Accompanying the show will be a limited-edition monograph w/ over 180 images and a foreword by Phyllis Braff. Ms. Anastasi's collage series was exhibited at Welancora Gallery, Brooklyn, in May, 2019. In 2018, ten paintings were exhibited in "Painting to Survive," curated by Yale critic Jonathan Weinberg. Book and catalog publications include "Stations of the Cross", SPQR press, BREUCKELEN magazine, “Audrey Frank Anastasi”, catalog essay Cindy Nemser, and "Collage," essay by Giancarlo T. Roma. Public art includes a portrait of Jo Davidson at the Trailside Museum & Zoo, Bear Mountain State Park, NY, and the Stations of the Cross in the auditorium of Our Lady of Angels RC Church, Brooklyn.
