Ann Kipling: Selected Biography

Ann Kipling was born in Victoria, British Columbia, in 1934. She began attending the Vancouver School of Art in 1955, and graduated with honours in 1960. In the early part of her career she studied with Jan Zach and Herbert Seibner, in Victoria. She also attended the Institute Allende in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. Working exclusively on paper, Kipling has established herself as an important figure in Canadian art. Her work can be found in public and private collections across the country.

Kipling states: “Drawing is exploratory. It defines and clarifies a visual idea. It is also the delight in mark making the magical connection between things seen and described, the direct encounter. When I am drawing from the figure or in the landscape, I am fascinated by the change, movement, energy, and transformation of form in a seemingly static situation.” (Statement in the exhibition catalogue, For the Record: Drawing Contemporary Life. Vancouver: Vancouver Art Gallery, 2003.)
