VITA ANNA BEÖTHY-STEINER

Born Anna Krausz in 1902 in Nagyvárad (today Oradea, Romania); died 1985 in Montrouge near Paris.

From 1922 to 1925 she studied journalism and art in Budapest with Álmos Jaschik. Travels to Austria, Germany and Italy. Contact with Filippo Tommaso Marinetti and engagement with his Futurism as well as with the Orphism of Robert Delaunay. In 1927 she moved to Paris. In 1931 co-founded the group “Abstraction-Création” with artists such as Hans Arp, István Beöthy, Naum Gabo, Auguste Herbin, František Kupka, Piet Mondrian, Ben Nicholson and Georges Vantongerloo. Alongside strictly geometric works, works with surrealist forms and figures emerge. Intensive work with gouaches, watercolors, collages as well as illustrations, fabric and fashion designs. Experiments with geometric color fields, whose ideal proportions she investigated.
From 1932 onward she used the contrast effect of pure and vivid colors in her compositions, which, with their flat color spaces, anticipate the ideas of Op Art. In 1936 she married István Beöthy. In 1937 Anna Beöthy Steiner interrupted her artistic work. The main works are regarded as those from the years 1927 to 1934.

Continuation of her artistic career after Beöthy’s death in 1961, among other things with publications by the Panderma Verlag Carl Laszlo and Galerie Kuntze Berlin.
