“Perigee”

Bio

Annie Faber was born in Kansas, raised in northwestern Connecticut and graduated from Skidmore (BS-Studio Arts) and Syracuse (MFA), both with Honors. Prior to moving to Chicago, she taught Visual Arts at The Thacher School in Ojai, CA and The Lovett School in Atlanta. In the last eight years, she has traveled to Syria, Jordon, France, Spain and Chile’s Patagonia. Her travels have invigorated her intense interest in Comparative Religious Studies and have deeply inspired her body of artistic work.

In her own words… “As an active studio artist since the mid 1980’s, I ask every time I paint that I may be truthful, attentive and wholly open. I paint as a means to bring together the outward worldly experiences and the visceral inner truth we crave. I have honed a personal style that is created with multiple layers of rich, saturated Chroma laid down in thin washes and glazes, creating surprising juxtapositions of plane and edge. I exploit the reductive mark deftly, interweaving it with gestural marks and luminous color fields appearing to shift in space and light.”

Annie’s work has been featured in numerous exhibitions and solo shows, and is held in collections throughout the United States.
