Education and training


She graduated with a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Los Andes in 1960.[4] She continued her studies in the areas of printmaking and art history at the University of Illinois.[5][6] While living in London in the late 1960s, she studied engraving at the Chelsea School of Art.


Work


Sanín has cited a number of specific influences, including Ellsworth Kelly, Wassily Kandinsky, and Henri Matisse.[7] Her work is often compared to that of Carmen Herrera and Lygia Clark.

Sanín's work is in several public collections, including the Allen Memorial Art Museum in Oberlin, Ohio, where Sanín donated a painting in 2017. Acrylic No. 1, 2005 was donated by the artist in honor of the scholarly work of Edward J. Sullivan, Helen Gould Sheppard professor of Fine Arts at New York University. Additionally, the museum acquired three studies for this painting: Study for Painting No. 1 (3) 2005, Study for Painting No. 1 (5) 2005, and Study for Painting No. 1 (7) 2005.[8]
