Ann Craven is a renowned painter based in New York City, known for her vibrant and bold portraits of the moon, animals, flowers, and other everyday objects. Her work can be categorized into two distinct styles: the iconographic, featuring recognizable images, and the abstract, characterized by diagonal stripes of color. Craven's paintings, meticulously inscribed with the date and time of creation, capture the fleeting nature of moments and memories. She has exhibited extensively, both nationally and internationally, and her work has been featured in major publications such as The New York Times, Artforum, and Frieze. In addition to her iconic paintings, Craven has also created a series of abstract stripe banded canvases and Untitled Palettes, which serve as a documentation of her artistic process and a reflection on the passage of time. Her museum retrospective exhibitions, including Shadows Moon and Abstract Lies and Birds We Know, have garnered critical acclaim and have been accompanied by beautifully illustrated catalogs. Craven's work is highly regarded in the art world, and her monograph, Ann Craven, published in 2018, showcases her extensive body of work. With a keen eye for color and a dedication to capturing the essence of her subjects, Craven's paintings are a testament to her artistic talent and unique perspective.Generated from the website
