BIO
Anne-Guri Foss was born in Bærum, Norway in 1961. She's the oldest of four children. When she was young she dreamed of becoming a painter and left home early to attend Art School in London. Instead of making a living as an artist she ended up working in advertising and publishing. Among others she worked ten years as an Art-director in the interior magazine Bo Bedre.
She's been interested in literature and film her whole life. This has given her a strong urge to express herself creatively through photography, painting and drawing.
She draws inspiration from artists lik Joyce Tenneson, Duane Michals, Vivian Mayer, Francesca Woodman, Dag Alveng, Per Sandberg, Erle Kyllingmark, Sebastiao Salgado, Egon Schiele, Gustav Klimt, Edvard Munch, Frida Kahlo, René Magritte, Lars Mytting, Sigrid Undset og Jens Bjørneboe.
Anne-Guri has a grown daughter and lives alone in Stabekk in Bærum.
