Bio

Anne Koskinen (b.1969 in Finland) is a versatile conceptual artist mastering several techniques from marble sculpture to detailed acquarelles and installations. Her bronze casts of road kill animals and wooden copies of other artists’ paintings are all part of her conceptual approach to the questions of original and copy. In her most recent works titled ‘Findling’ Koskinen has turned her attention to stones found from her own backyard. Koskinen is intrigued especially by how the immaterial concept and the visible sensual image and object relate to one another. Koskinen starts to unravel this process by searching for stones from nature. Sculpting the stone, through the process of physically removing material from the rock Koskinen is searching for the point when material becomes representational, when a found stone from nature turns into sculpture. The German title of the work ’Findling’ (engl. foundling) itself carries both the meaning of a found infant and an erratic boulder.
Anne Koskinen is represented in collections such as Kiasma Museum of Conteporary Art Helsinki, Helsinki Art Museum, Gothenburg Museum of Art, Malmö Museum of Art, Nordic Watercolour Museum (Sweden) and The State Art Collection of Baden-Württemberg Germany.
