Anne Dunn was born in London but spent her early childhood in Canada. She studied first at the Chelsea School of Art from 1949 to 1950 and then at the Anglo-French Centre under Henry Moore before going to the Academie Julian in Paris in 1952. Dunn had her first solo show at the Leicester Gallery in London in 1957; continuing to exhibit at the same gallery throughout the 1960s. She also exhibited at the Fischbach Gallery in New York regularly from 1967 to 1989. Dunn’s work was exhibited at the Tibor de Nagy Gallery in New York in 2005. Regular collaborations with poets have resulted in Dunn producing several book illustrations and covers. Dunn’s work can be seen at the Beaverbrook Art Gallery in Fredericton, New Brunswick, the Arts Council Collection in London, and in many private collections.
