An Exclusive Interview With Anna Rubin

A contemporary extension of 700 years of European artistic tradition: Your personal introduction to classical artisan.

- IDA SALAMON

Anna Rubin is a professional artist based in Florence, Italy. Anna's fine art paintings glorify beauty through StillLife, featuring meaningful compositions of antique and modern objects. Anna also creates captivating figurative artworks. Art investors, international art galleries, and prestigious art auctions recognize Anna Rubin's fine art. Drawing from her European roots and traditional upbringing founded on a deep appreciation of culture, history, and aesthetics, Anna employs Old Masters Technique to create fascinating artworks in StillLife, Figurative and Conceptual genres.

Moved by memories, emotions, and the need to express her feelings, Anna started painting in 2002, with a series of works painted in oil on Belgium Linen, using the Old Masters Technique of painting in layers. In 2004, Anna started painting her first collection as a professional artist. Rather than compromise tradition and artistic integrity for commercial opportunism, Anna has steadfastly remained true to her style and quality, persisting in creating artwork that accurately reflects her European roots, interpreted with breathtaking 21st-century realism. In doing so, she labor over each painting for several months to achieve a result not replicable by modern mass production methods.

This authenticity has simply accelerated her commercial success.

Her first paintings were sold to different private collections in Queensland, Australia, in April 2005. Anna's first solo show opened in February 2006 and sold out to numerous collectors in Queensland, South Australia, New South Wales, and Victoria. The second solo show of the collection, "Les Objets d'Amour," was sold out in February 2008 at Richard Martin Art Gallery in Sydney, Woollahra.
