Astronomie

Gretchen Albrecht attended the University of Auckland, School of Fine Arts (Elam) and by the late 1960s, her reputation as an artist of considerable promise had been cemented with her series of colour-stained canvases. Since the 1970s, Albrecht’s work has progressed from these poured acrylic stained canvases into a pair of signature shaped-canvas formats – the hemisphere (half circle) & the oval – where combinations of colour and geometry create images with a ‘clear poetic impulse, in which references to landscape, family and the cosmos act as emotional points of departure’.
