анна беоти-штайнер (1902 - 1985)
Anna Beothy-Steiner was a Hungarian-French Avant-Garde painter. She studied journalism at the private art school of Álmos Jaschik in Budapest between 1922 and 1925. Her travels to Austria, Germany, and Italy exposed her to the futuristic ideas of Filippo Tommaso Marinetti and the Orphism of Robert Delaunay, both of which influenced her work. Beothy-Steiner moved to Paris in 1927 and married István Beöthy. Between 1927 and 1934, she created her major works, including gouaches, watercolors, magazine illustrations, fabric, and fashion designs. Her compositions during this period were characterized by the interpenetration and superimposition of simple, geometric color surfaces, revealing the influence of her husband's preoccupation with proportions. From 1932 onwards, her compositions contrasted simple colors, creating flat color spaces that anticipated the ideas of Op Art. Beothy-Steiner interrupted her artistic work in 1934 and did not resume until the 1960s, following her husband's death.
