About
the Artist
Frances Bildner has had training in Art History (B.A.), and has
attended numerous courses in
painting, drawing, and Batik, mainly in New York City, between 1983
and 1990.
Impressions magazine described her as "a passionate and seductive
painter, her riotous use of colour
affirms this view. The paintings are in definite, almost aggressively
joyous dialogue with the viewer and
their presence is hard to ignore". New York's 'Village Voice'
declared her work as "varied and vital enough
to renew a jaded spirit". She now lives and works in London,
and is represented in collections
throughout Europe and America.

Artist's
Statement
"I paint from my imagination. Much of my work stems from my
subconscious. I am influenced by both
the Abstract Expressionists and German Expressionists. The most
important element for me in painting
is colour. Everything I want to say is translated through colour
and movement. I use colour in quite an emotive
way. My paintings often provoke strong reactions. I paint in bold
colours, which probably accounts for my
dislike of water-colours. I have sold to private collectors, offices
and restaurants, and have exhibited in
Europe and the United States."
