Annette Rosenshine, San Francisco-born, Berkeley artist known for her
miniature sculptures.
As a young girl Miss Rosenshine studied
at the old Mark Hopkins Institute of Art, now the California School of Fine
Arts in San Francisco. After the earthquake and fire, she went to Paris with
Mrs. Michael Stein, sister-in-law of Gertrude Stein, where as a student of
Matisse and a friend of Picasso she was schooled in the art and philosophy
of the group known as "Les Fauves."
Returning to
San Francisco after two years in Paris, Miss Rosenshine, realizing her
limitations, decided to give up on her art career and turned to social
service work. She assisted with mental tests for children at Stanford Clinic
and there developed her interest in psychoanalysis which in turn took her
back to Europe for further study. There she met Dr. Jung of Zurich who
encouraged her to continue her art work. She began modeling and sculpturing
making miniature grotesques, masks and portraits.
