Anna Mary Robertson ("Grandma") Moses
Grandma Moses is one of the most important self-taught artists of the 20th century. She achieved a celebrity that far transcended the normal boundaries of the folk-art field. In the immediate post-World-War-II years, Moses was one of the most successful and famous artists in America, and possibly the best known American artist in Europe.
The Galerie St. Etienne mounted Grandma Moses's first one-woman exhibition in 1940 and represented her for the remainder of her life. Since the artist's death in 1961, the gallery has represented her estate.
In 1951, the Galerie St. Etienne established a separate legal entity, Grandma Moses Properties Co., to control the copyrights and trademarks in Moses's work. As sister-organizations, Galerie St. Etienne and Grandma Moses Properties share premises and staff, and provide a variety of services specific to the artist.
The contact information for Grandma Moses Properties Co. is the same as that for the Galerie St. Etienne.
