In conversation with: Russell Tovey and Rob Diamond
Russell & Robert meet artist Ann Craven. We discuss painting
the Moon in TriBeCa and Harlem, Her fascination with Birds
as a subject in her work, Agnes Martin, grief and the loss of her
father, the influence of Alex Katz’s paintings (who she worked
for having first met in Maine), snowy owls and a devestating
studio fire twenty years ago in which she lost many artworks
and belongings. We discuss an unexpected family connection
to art legend Frank Stella, her close friendships with Karma
Books Matt Shuster and artist Sophie von Hellerman, plus what
it’s like to be part of an artist couple with her husband the painter
Peter Halley.
