"Meander" by Angela Grossmann - FRESH PICKS V1 E1


Vantage Art Projects is thrilled to announce the launch of The Fresh Picks limited-edition print series with renowned contemporary artist Angela Grossmann.

“Meander” was chosen for us by Angela and is a never-exhibited artwork from her own private collection - one that she intends never to part with. The artwork is a signature double-portrait of two young girls walking, rendered in Angela’s signature mixed-media technique. Full of atmospheric texture, this double portrait captures not only the tension between adolescent vulnerability and obstinence, but also captures a strikingly contemporary tone through the
dress and the posture of the girls.

Since graduating from Emily Carr, Angela reputation has grown steadily. She earned her MFA at Concordia University and later taught at Ottawa University before returning to Vancouver. Angela’s work has been shown widely around Canada, the United States and Europe with a career total to date of nearly 20 solo exhibitions and innumerous group exhibitions. We are honoured to be launching FRESH PICKS with an artist of Angela’s stature and generousity.

Fresh Picks is Vantage Art Projects’ series of affordable limited edition fine art prints. The series allows art lovers to own work that is current and representative of the contemporary artscape. It is an unprecedented way for artists to share their work with collectors and art lovers across the world. Released twice a month, the artist and work is first announced to our mailing
list and is sold exclusively through the Vantage Art Projects website. “Meander” is a unique opportunity to collect an image from Angela’s highly covetable and collectable body of work. Furthermore, “Meander” is only available through the FRESH PICKS series, sold only through the Vantage Art Projects website, www.vantageartprojects.com.
