About the Item

Oil on canvas STATEMENT by AUDREY ANASTASI: Considering myself primarily a feminist artist, painting other women, most of my work focuses on the human face, figures, animals and nature. Whether the subject matter is figuration or nature, I approach all my subjects directly and boldly. I prefer direct observation, and I work very rapidly. And, as with all my paintings since 1990, in my quest to discover and reveal what is most essential, the figuration works are painted almost exclusively with my non-dominant left hand. BIO A curator, gallery owner/director, educator and arts advocate, Audrey Frank Anastasi is, above all, a prolific, practicing artist. A book of her "Stations of the Cross" series was published in 2016 by SPQR press (ISBN:9780997530650). In progress is a commissioned series of forced-migration-themed works slated for simultaneous exhibition at the privately-owned Valentine Museum of Art, and at Medgar Evers College, Brooklyn, NY.. Ms. Anastasi has an extensive history of being featured in exhibitions and publications, including recent interviews in BREUCKELEN magazine, ArtVoices, and Art Book Guy. Born in Baltimore, Maryland, Audrey graduated Magna cum Laude from University of Miami on full academic scholarship. She attended Pratt Institute, Brooklyn, New York, earning her Master's Degree in Fine Arts.
