2016

Danziger Gallery is pleased to announce our representation of the acclaimed British painter Annie Kevans. Known for the originality of her ideas as well as the deftness and beauty of her brushstrokes, since 2004 Kevans has produced multiple series of portraits with provocative historical, social, or political concepts. Kevans’ place in the British art world started at art school when her series, “Boys”, was bought by Charles Saatchi from her 2004 Central St. Martins School of Art degree show. The series was subsequently exhibited in its entirety at the Saatchi Gallery as part of the exhibition “Paper”. Kevans has exhibited in group shows at leading museums including the Barbican Art Gallery, the Royal Academy, the Grand Palais, the National Gallery of Victoria in Melbourne, and the Marres Centre for Contemporary Art in Maastricht. Her work can be found in major collections, including the Pallant House Gallery, the David Roberts Collection, 21c Museum, as well as in the collections of Lord Rothermere, Marc Quinn, and Jean Pigozzi.
