- Anna Chromy is a painter and sculptor. Born in Bohemia, raised in Austria, living in France and working in Italy, she considers herself the quintessential European. Her best-known piece is the empty coat, known as Coat of Peace, Piétà or Commendatore, located in Cathedral in Salzburg, Austria, Stavovske divadlo in Prague, National Archeological Museum in Athens and elsewhere. Currently, Chromy is transforming Coat into a chapel over four meters high, carved out of a block of marble weighing over 200 tons in the Cave Michelangelo in Carrara. It is to be placed as the Universal Symbol of Peace in front of the Basilica di San Francesco in Assisi. Other important works include the Olympic Spirit, to be placed in front of the new library in Shanghai; and Europe, a contemporary reinterpretation of the old myth, to be placed at the European institutions. Chromy draws inspiration from music, opera in particular; classic dance; and the ancient myths. Her paintings speak of an admiration for Salvador Dalì and other Surrealists, and contain references to the Vienna School of Fantastic Realism and other Central European artists. Her colors, sometimes used also on sculptures, have a subtle Turner-like touch.
