Margit Anna
Margit Anna , née Margit Sichermann, (born December 23, 1913 in Borota ; † June 3, 1991 in Budapest ) was a Hungarian painter of the 20th century.
She attended the Hungarian Academy of Fine Arts from 1932 to 1936 ; her teacher was János Vaszary . In 1937 she traveled to Paris with her husband Imre Ámos , also a painter. There she met Marc Chagall . His influence can be seen in her early work. This was similar to the work of Imre Ámos with lyrical grotesque elements that characterize her paintings.
After the death of her husband in a concentration camp run by the National Socialist regime in 1944, her style became harsher and more elementary. 1945–1948 a new motif appeared in her paintings of dolls , which symbolize the human being surrendered to history.
For a long time after 1949 she was unable to participate in art life. She painted again in the mid-1960s. Her paintings symbolized suppressed tragedy with surreal and expressive metamorphoses of the doll motif.
Her painting The Creator Rest was included in the 1000 masterpieces .
