	Anne Deleporte

Post-modern artist Anne Deleporte reveals the world around her in fragments and glimpses. Hidden iconic images appear from behind a whitewashed wall, ethereal figures emerge from scratched surfaces on glass, and the mundane becomes fantastic in the manipulated subjects of her photographic works, paintings, films and videos.

Deleporte’s world constantly reveals itself. Landscapes and figurative artwork elude strict categories. She uses color and texture to coax the images from varied surfaces. Her installations and photographic images challenge conventional spatial relationships. Anne Deleporte presents her constantly changing concept of reality.

She combines photography, painting and sculpture to create her own visual language. Never static, the images are transformed by the artist, and by the viewer who is occasionally asked to participate in the evolution of the artwork. Deleporte invites the public to scratch a pane of glass covered in gold leaf, add a colored handprint to a wall or dig through sand to uncover a treasure she has artfully hidden.

Anne Deleporte was born in France in 1960. She lives in Brooklyn, New York, and in Paris with her husband, artist Stephen Dean.
