A companion exhibition to "Anne Minich: The Truth of Being Both/And", featuring work from the PAFA alumna's "Boat Series"

Opening reception: February 15, 5:30 p.m.

The PAFA Alumni Gallery presents Anne Minich: Boat Series, a companion exhibition to The Truth of Being Both/And in the Richard C. von Hess Foundation Works on Paper Gallery.

Minich, who attended PAFA in 1954 and 1955, is known for her abstract, mixed-media paintings on wood that are often inspired by architectural elements. She refers to them as "painting/constructs" and incorporates "intentionally ordinary and mundane" found objects into her work. Minich also creates her own wooden supports and framing treatments.

Minich's work has been on view in well over a dozen solo shows and many more group exhibitions. Her work is collected by museums and private collectors, and she is the recipient of awards including a  Pollack–Krasner Award, the Leeway Foundation's Bessie Berman Painting Award, and a MacDowell Colony Fellowship. She lives and works in Philadelphia.
