ABSTRACT EXPRESSIONISM 🎨 love, ur local art mom 🩵

disclaimers and more information under the cut ✂️

hi I’m annemarie and I’m an art historian! not adjuncting for the first time in five years was rly hard for me so I threw some slides together so I could still (sort of) teach the same material as my language of art class but a) I threw these slides together for instagram so space was/is limited and b) language of art is a ten week run through art history so I’m presenting only the most accessible information here – there’s so much more to this art period and to these artists! – please don’t expect it to be comprehensive and please do ask if you have any questions!

oh p.s. my first ever class of art history students came up with the name ‘art mom’ for me at the end of the quarter and yes it does make me cry if I think about it too long thanks so much for asking

the girl and the dog. oil on canvas, 2020. i made this as a commision for a friend of mine who ownes a thrift store named Prisløs, in Trondheim, norway (they have since relocated to oslo). the painting is based on a true story, and depicts an unusual customer who brought a whole lot of clothes into the fitting room. after being in there for a long time, she ran out of there, now with a dog that no-one in the store saw enter with her. apparently it was in her backpack, which by this point was filled with clothes she didn't intend to pay for. as far as i know she got away with it, good for her. i hope she and her dog is doing alright.
