AMERICAN COLLAGE MIXED MEDIA PAINTING BY ANNE RYAN
Anne Ryan, American, 1889 to 1954, a collage mixed media painting on paper depicting an abstract expressionist composition. Signed lower right. Framed. Anne Ryan was an American Abstract Expressionist artist associated with the New York School. Her first contact with the New York City avant garde came in 1941 when she joined the Atelier 17, a famous printmaking workshop that the British artist Stanley William Hayter had established in Paris in the 1930s and then brought to New York when France fell to the Nazis. She right away dedicated herself to this newly discovered medium. Since Anne Ryan was a poet, according to Deborah Solomon, in Kurt Schwitterss collages she recognized the visual equivalent of her sonnets discrete images packed together in an extremely compressed space. Modern and Contemporary American Fine Art, Abstract Expressionist Paintings, Wall Art, and Collectibles.
