ANNIE TERRAZZO
COLLECTION
Annie grew up in Breckenridge Colorado, where she spent
most of her time writing plays on a 1970’s typewriter and
watching old movies while dreaming of Paris. She grew up
around art with a plein air and silversmith family who taught
her how to make beautiful things, while in sharp contrast,
her mother (a schizophrenic porn actress) and her father (a
formula one race car driver) created nothing but chaos. After
Annie graduated from the Academy of Art in San Francisco
she began her career in trash portraiture, mostly focusing on
using found objects, newspapers and magazines. She enjoys
creating work that allows the viewer not only see it visually
but read it as well.
Her work has been in exhibitions juried by Timothy J Potts
(Director of The Getty) and at The Santa Monica Museum
of Art. Annie’s statement says as much about her work as
it does about herself: There is great beauty to be found.
Sometimes you have to go through the trash to find it.”
