From 1925, she travelled to the French-speaking countries of East Africa where she created numerous sculptures and water colours inspired by her impressions of the local people. She exhibited them at the Galerie Charpentier and at the Paris Colonial Exposition in 1931. In 1932, she visited Ethiopia where she created a bust of Haile Selassie.[2]Her work is included in the collection of the mus\u00e9e Despiau-Wl\u00e9rick in Mont-de-Marsan, France.[3]Table of ContentsEarly life and education[edit]Awards and distinctions[edit]Further reading[edit]References[edit]External links[edit]Early life and education[edit]Born on 5 March 1890 in Paris,[1] Anna Fanny Marguerite Quinquaud was the fourth child of the dermatologist Charles-Eug\u00e8ne Quinquaud (1841\u20131894) and Th\u00e9r\u00e8se Phanie Caillaux (1859\u20131928), a sculptor, who introduced her to the art of sculpting.[4] Following the death of her father, she spent her summers on the family’s property at Lafat in the Creuse where her mother had a studio.[5][6] It was at Lafat when only 12 years old that she created a terracotta relief titled “La Berg\u00e8re et ses moutons”.[2] When she was 17, she was commissioned to create a bust of the politician Armand Fourot for \u00c9vaux-les-Bains.[5] Quinquaud received further instruction under Blanche Laurent before being admitted to the \u00c9cole des Beaux-Arts in 1918 where she studied under Laurent Marqueste and Victor S\u00e9goffin.[7]    In 1924, the \u00c9cole des Beaux-Arts awarded her a Prix de Rome scholarship, including a year’s study in Rome. However quite unusually for a young woman of her day, she decided instead to travel to Africa in 1925\u201326, visiting the Niger, Mauritania, Senegal, Sudan and Mali, accompanied only by her Sudanese boys who carried her sculptures, clothes and equipment. Inspired by the local people, she portrayed them in her sculptures.[2][9]Thanks to her careful observation of their bodies and faces, her busts, bronzes and artwork depicted African women during pregnancy, carrying water or at work.[10]She subsequently returned to Africa in 1930\u201331, this time at her own expense, visiting the Niger, the Fouta Djallon region of French Guinea and Timbuktu.[2] Based in Pita, over a period of eight months she came into contact with the Fula, Coniagui and Bassari people. Her creations include the tall beauty Aissatou, the rather sulky Kad\u00e9, Tougu\u00e9’s daughter, N\u00e9n\u00e9galley, daughter of Tierno Moktar, chief of Pita, a little Fula girl, her “Maternit\u00e9 Pita”, holding a baby, and “Archer coniagui” complete with bow.[11] Aspiring to capture the essence of these people, she commented: “Isn’t it the artist’s role to reveal to the non-initiate what he is unable to see?” Whether in wood, bronze or terracotta, her works depict the slim, haughty silhouettes of these figures, also revealing their gestures and movements.[2] Many of her works from this expedition were exhibited at the Galerie Charpentier in Paris and at the 1931 Paris Colonial Exposition.[12]In 1932, she visited Africa for the third and last time, visiting Somalia, Ethiopia and Madagascar, once again bringing back her creations.[13] These and earlier works were exhibited at the Exposition Internationale des Arts et Techniques dans la Vie Moderne in 1937.[7]In later life, she participated in work on several monuments in Normandy, including the Calvaire Saint-Pierre Memorial in Caen (1961) and plaster reliefs for the Jean Moulin de Venoix school (1978).[7]Anna Quinquaud died on 25 December 1984 at Fontenay-Tr\u00e9signy.[1]Awards and distinctions[edit]Anna Quinquaud received many awards, including:[14]Further reading[edit]References[edit]^ a b c “Anna Quinquaud”.
