Anne Pincus (born Melbourne, 1961) is an Australian painter and installation artist. She currently lives in Munich, Germany.
Pincus studied Visual Art at the Monash University, Gippsland campus from 1978 to 1983.[1] She was a member of the Roar 2 Studio artists collective in Fitzroy, Melbourne.[2] She received her Graduate Diploma in Religious Education from La Trobe University in 1992.[1] In 1994 she moved to Germany.[3] She has participated in many group and solo exhibitions.
Nevill Drury wrote in 1994 that "Anne Pincus ... introduce[s] a more general mystical quality to their painting which evokes a sense of space and timelessness not rooted in any specific religio[n]".[4] In the 2010s, Pincus explored contrasting ways of depicting places, and the symbolism of gardens, overlaying the symbols of topographical maps on to blurred oil paintings of gardens.[5][6][7] She has also explored different perceptions of forests, as threatening, fairy-tale like or vulnerable, through her paintings and installations.[8][9][10]
In 2014, she participated in an artistic exploration of the theme 'Building Bridges with Christ' displayed in Saint Blaise Abbey, Black Forest, with an installation called 'Parachute Love', a parachute suspended floating beneath the Gothic vault.[11] She had also displayed this installation in St. Benedict's Church, Munich, in 2006.
Pincus also teaches at the Münchner Volkshochschule , the Munich Adult Education Centre.[1]
