Anne von Freyburg is a Dutch artist based in London. Her large-scale textile paintings are reconstructed Rococo portraits and florals made out of a mixture of tapestry and contemporary fashion fabrics. With imagery sourced from French and Dutch 18th-century painters such as François Boucher, Jean-Honoré Fragonard, and Jan van Huysum, her work addresses stylized and fetishized notions of feminine beauty and commodification. Von Freyburg attempts to raise questions about taste, femininity, high and low art, and the constructs of female identity. The appropriated paintings are created with acrylic ink which is translated into hand-stitched fabrics and sewing techniques that give the work a quasi-bodily presence. On the one hand, von Freyburg's works are playful and reference the decorative quality of their sources; on the other, their over-indulgence points to the excesses of throwaway fashion culture, selfies, surgical interventions, and consumerism. By combining fine art with applied art in a conceptual way, she aims at blurring the boundaries between them. Von Freyburg received her MFA from Goldsmiths (2016) and holds a BA in Fashion Design from ArtEZ Arnhem, The Netherlands. She is the winner of the Robert Walters UK New Artists Award (2021) and has been featured in 3 group shows and a solo exhibition (2025) at Saatchi Gallery, London. She was nominated for The Ingram Prize (2021) and took part in the Cob x PLOP Winter Residency followed by an exhibition in November (2021). Her work was part of the Tapestry Triennial at the Central Textile Museum in Lodz, Poland (2022), one of the most prominent international textile museums worldwide as well as at the renowned textile exhibition, 32 Miniartextil, in Como Italy. Von Freyburg’s work has been featured at Art Basel Hong Kong, Art Buson Seoul and at Art Monaco Art Week.
