Abstract expressionist Ann Shogren depicts vivid landscapes, and paints tapestries of colors that have simultaneously calming and rejuvenating effects on her audiences. Having lived in Iowa, Utah, and the California Wine Country, Shogren draws inspiration from the landscapes that surround her, creating energetic, colorful compositions that seem to have their own life upon the canvas.
Shogren’s vivacious work has been showcased in many public and private collections throughout the world. Collections that show her work include the Louvre, Paris, France, where she was a featured artist in the SEE.ME Exhibit; the 2013 Venice Biennial, Venice, Italy; the GZ Basel Art Fair, Basel, Switzerland, where she won a silver award as well as being featured in galleries in Springdale, UT; Santiago, Chile; Santa Fe, NM; Glen Ellen, CA; and Healdsburg, CA.
