Anya Fisher was a Russian American artist, musician and writer who immigrated to Minnesota with her family during the Bolshevik Revolution. Fisher later moved to New York and then Los Angeles, where she studied with Avant Garde artist Rico de Brun at the Jepson Art Institute. She graduated with an MFA in 1951 and took a job at LACMA to fund a year of study at the Académie Grand Chaumière in 1952. Fisher developed important relationships with artists like Betye and Dick Saar and Frederick Hammersley during those years. While there, she met her future husband Eddie Fisher.
Fisher is known for her strong, organic, abstracted female forms. The painting for sale here is a strong example of her work. Fisher held solo exhibitions at the Pasadena Art Museum and Long Beach Museum of Art among others. She left behind a body of literature, a number of paintings, drawings, and ceramics.
