Anna Klindt Sørensen

27 Mar - 16 May 1999

The painter Anna Klindt Sørensen (1899-1985) lived most of her life in Ry by Silkeborg. After a short time at the Art Academy in Copenhagen she went to Paris for a period of 17 years. There she frequented several theachers of the subject, among others Fernand Leger, Andre Lhote and Marcel Gromaire. Her own expression goes through many phases. Towards the middle of the thirties it is flavoured by poetical expressionism where the brush strokes and colours have their own life in compositions that remain unencumbered by the motifs. She left an extensive collection of her own works and established a trust for support of woman artists.
