Hello

Anne Colvin is an artist who explores the event as image: “Stripping back the narrative arc to mere moments, imbuing filmic strands with raw, sensuous, often jarring energy, Anne’s work has a heightened awareness of time, frame, texture and gesture.” Her practice regularly shifts between video, photography, the ephemeral and the mis-en-scene.

Her work has been shown nationally and internationally, most recently at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art in Long Play: Bruce Conner and The Singles Collection. Other recent venues include Torrance and Laguna Art Museums, California; San Francisco Arts Commission Gallery; Gavin Brown’s Enterprise and Spencer Brownstone Gallery, New York; Post, Los Angeles; Matt’s Gallery and Mare Street Biennale, London and Lowsalt Gallery, Glasgow. Recent commissions include The Forged Coupon chapbook published by Publication Studio for SF Camerawork.

Her curatorial projects have been commissioned by Berkeley Art Museum; New Langton Arts and David Cunningham Projects, San Francisco and presented at Frieze Art Fair, London; NY Art Book Fair with White Columns, New York and Poetic Research Bureau, Los Angeles. Colvin ran TART, a project space dedicated to time-based media in San Francisco from 2004 to 2008 and is included in Maurizio Cattelan’s Charley Independents No Soul for Sale book.

Anne is also a regular public speaker and was recently invited to speak on “The Future of Art Museums” at Berkeley Art Museum. She has written for LUX, an international moving image arts organization and Frieze Magazine, UK.
