Summer Visiting Artist Lecture Series: Anne Buckwalter MFA '12

Anne Buckwalter’s creative practice explores the intersection of sexuality and domestic life. Inspired by the folk art traditions of her Pennsylvania Dutch heritage, her paintings arrange disparate objects in interior spaces, integrating the erotic with the mundane. By imagining obscure narratives that embrace paradoxes, her work delves into questions about the body, femininity, and desire.

Anne Buckwalter (b. 1987, Lancaster, PA) is a painter based in Durham, Maine. Anne is the recipient of a 2020-2021 Pollock-Krasner Foundation Grant, a 2020 Idea Fund Grant, and a 2016 Joan Mitchell Foundation Emerging Artist Grant. She has been an artist-in-residence at the Galveston Artist Residency, Vermont Studio Center, Studios at Mass MoCA, Hewnoaks Artist Colony, Fores Project, and Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity. Her exhibition history includes the Farnsworth Art Museum, Rockland, ME; Portland Museum of Art, Portland, ME; Woodmere Art Museum, Philadelphia, PA; Boston University Gallery, Boston, MA; The Painting Center, New York, NY, and others.
