Susanna Briselli Silver Gelatin Framed Photo Silver gelatin framed photograph by Susanna Briselli; still life depiction; additional info and provenance verso; measures approximately 31-1/2" x 26-1/2" with wooden frame and has a sight image of approximately 19" x 14-1/2". Susanna Briselli was born in Philadelphia, PA. Her training in drawing and painting began at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. After graduating from New York’s Pratt Institute with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree, she returned to Philadelphia to attend the University of Pennsylvania’s Graduate School of Fine Arts, studying painting under Neil Welliver. In 1975, Briselli experimented combining one medium directly with the other. Though the results confounded many at the time, Briselli decided to pursue this approach finding it both challenging and compelling. The first group of “photo-paintings†was exhibited in New York at the Kathryn Markel Gallery in 1979. Briselli continued developing and exhibiting her work in New York and across the country. In 1989, she joined the Witkin Gallery, remaining an active artist on its roster until its closing in 2000.
