Who is ana cabrera grohs?

Answer 1

Ana Cabrera Grohs, visual artist www.abstractpaintings-anacabrera.com She was born in the city of Paraná, province of Entre Ríos, Argentina, a location that was chosen by her grandfather who emigrated from Germany. From her childhood, she enjoyed admiring the green ravines and the brown color of the Paraná river. During her adolescence she moved to Buenos Aires, where she lives nowadays.

She obtained a professor degree in Philosophy, Psychology and Pedagogy and held a professional position in the social security area.

After dreaming about painting during her whole life, she discovered her need to study painting art thanks to her son who required her help with his art tasks during the first year of his secondary school. She has performed theoretical and practical studies on acrylic abstract painting with Master Jérôme Tisserand at the Moulin de Perrot Institute in France. She started studying at Master Luís Debairosmoura's studio, and then continued her studies with Master Carlos Cañas at the Decorative Arts Museum. She performed her first paintings in 1994, and that was a very important moment in her life because she decided to take the chance to develop that activity which she had always loved, the art of painting. At that time she started painting with a figurative style that reflected human shape, until she was requested to perform an abstract painting, which produced a change, an inner revolution in her, and dealing with said challenge she started considering the painting work with a different vision because she was able to strip herself off the concrete object and started to express her feelings in a deeper and more liberated manner. Said moment produced a transformation in her and caused that from that point in time onwards the great majority of her artworks reflect said abstraction style. She paints what she feels and thinks, and not what she can strictly see.

She attended contests in Europe and USA as exhibitor and exhibited her abstract paintings in several national painting events, exhibitions held in museums, art galleries as well as in government premises, book fairs, Communal Management Centers and at the Buenos Aires Commodity Exchange premises where one of her abstract paintings obtained the prize which consisted in taking part of the itinerant exhibition around the World, traveling across 23 countries in South America, Europe and Canada.

Some of her artworks are located in museums and private collections in the United States of America and Europe. She really enjoys painting, and her intention is to fully communicate her feelings through her paintings. If other people manage to feel and connect with her artwork, she is happy. In her abstract paintings, she invites the audience to set their imagination free by giving them the opportunity to interpret by themselves the artworks' significance.

She is member to the following associations: Member of Moulin de Perrot, Academy of Fine Arts- France / Ward-Nasse Gallery, New York-USA / GrilloArte Gallery, Punta del Este-Uruguay / Sociedad Argentina de Artistas Plasticos [Plastic Artists Argentine Society] Buenos Aires-Argentina / Fine Art Registry, Phoenix-USA / Museum of the Americas, Miami-USA / Asociación Internacional de Barcelona de Arte y Cultura Contemporanea [Barcelona's International Association of Contemporary Art and Culture Barcelona-Spain] / ConectArte Association, Cordoba-Spain. www.abstractpaintings-anacabrera.com
