About
Nan Brall was born in 1950 in New York City. Its abundance of world-renowned museums and galleries was an early influence on her engagement in the art world, and their accessibility allowed Nan to viscerally connect with the city’s creative life. After a move to New England in 1985, Nan was fortunate to be enrolled at the Silvermine School of Art when they initiated their first classes in heavy steel sculpting. It was here that she began, for several years, a studied examination of weight, form, and construction. Sometime later a health diagnosis, which covered almost a decade, would demand a different life and art trajectory. Paper became a new found medium, with its fluidity allowing for the continuing exploration into design without the confines of weight. Since moving down to Sarasota, Florida, Nan has become more involved with its burgeoning art scene. Her artwork has been highlighted in several art magazines, been juried into several exhibitions at the Sarasota Center of Art, including their “Florida’s Finest 2018 exhibition, and was recently chosen to have a solo show there in 2022.
