Artist Name

Annette Blau

Born: 1957

Hometown: Essen

Based in: Berg / Munich

Born in Essen, raised in Bavaria, Germany. Coming from a culturally very interested family, I started with drawing and photography at the age of 15. After school, I studied archtiecture & design at the SADBK in Stuttgart, a college very much in the tradition of the Bauhaus. So, we went into the full range from arts to architecture. My favorite technique is layering with prints, fabric, pigments, ink and acrylic paint. My inspiration is mother nature.

Annette Blau In The Studio

My work is a dialogue between art and its environment. As an architect, designer and artist I am creating a spatial sound.
