Anne Wallace was born in the Midwest in October of 1954. Her extensive education has included the Milwaukee Area Technical College, the University of Wisconsin in Milwaukee, George Brown University in Toronto and Colorado Women’s College in Denver. The aesthetic of Wallace’s work rests in its silence. She incites a solitary transaction between the viewer and the painting - a private and intimate meeting encouraging an undisturbed absorption of the image.
Using the canvas as a single plane, Anne chooses to stress the two-dimensional nature of painting, rejecting illusions of depth and gestural brushwork. She applies colors in blocks spanning the entire surface to suggest the composition may be yet a detail of a larger field.
Veils of color lend mystery to Anne’s work, accented at times by Asian symbology or a typeset letter either hidden or boldly displayed within the composition. These letters, as if hints in secret code to a larger message, are placed deliberately as a focal point to exalt the mind above the banal contingencies and trivialities of social life to a place more spiritual, contemplative and intimate.Anne's work has been exhibited in numerous galleries across the U.S., Maison et Objet in Paris, Art Expo New York, Art Expo Las Vegas, the Kohler showroom, and the Parade of Homes.
