“I am not sure that I exist, actually. I am all the writers
that I have read, all the people that I have met, all the women
that I have loved; all the cities I have visited.”

Frances Bildner is represented in collections throughout Europe and America. The paintings are in definite, almost aggressively joyous, dialogue with the viewer and their presence is hard to ignore. New York’s Village Voice declared Bildner’s work to be “varied and vital enough to renew a jaded spirit”. For the last 18 years she has also been writing stream of consciousness poetry and recently has started combining some poems with her paintings. Visit www.francesbildner.com aswell as on Flickr.
