Ann Meade’s work is a truly rare combination of geometric abstraction and figuration. Not unlike some of the work associated with the Mission School, Meade crafts art that features the everyday — baseball players, cats etc — snuggled amidst a gridded decorative field.
Oh yeah, she’s also a big Oakland A’s fan.
