Avis Newman
Appearance
Avis Newman (born 1946, London) is an English painter and sculptor.
Newman's drawings and large un-stretched canvases document her contemplative and intuitive investigation of the subconscious. Since the early 1980s she has been primarily associated with large-scale, minimalist drawings on un-stretched canvas - usually pinned directly to the gallery walls for display.[1]
