ANNE RUSSINOF
ANNE RUSSINOF
Anne Russinof lived and worked in Brooklyn, NY. Originally from Chicago, she was a graduate of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and received an MFA from Pratt Institute. Printmaking was an early focus for Russinof, who was primarily an oil painter with a studio in Crown Heights, Brooklyn. Works on paper frequently accompanied the paintings, in suites that explore related avenues of thought in washy mediums such as ink and casein. All of Russinof’s work is tied together by a focus on gestural line as expressed in layers of color, an apt description of the recent suite of etched monotypes printed at VanDeb.
Russinof had been a resident at the Yaddo and Millay Art Colonies, exhibited primarily in the New York area, and was a member of American Abstract Artists. Supporting herself as a designer for print and web, she also maintained a blog called Gallery Travels that featured mostly abstract painting shown in NYC.. She sadly passed away in Jan. 2025
