Biography
Wetzel was born on May 27, 1949, in Sauquoit, New York. She studied at the State University of New York at New Paltz.[1] In 1974 she co-founded the Women's Studio Workshop (WSW) in Rosendale, New York along with fellow artists Ann Kalmbach, Tatana Kellner, and Barbara Leoff Burge.[2]
Wetzel's interest in paper arts influenced WSW's focus on papermaking and artist's books.[3] The workshop is still in existence and still publishes artists books.[4]
She worked at WSW until 1980, when she departed for New York City, returning in 1995 where she served as director of development until 2017.[5] She died on March 14, 2021, in Rosendale, New York.[1]
Her work is in the collection of the Hudson Valley Visual Art Collections Consortium,[6] Brooklyn Museum, the MassArt Library, the Smithsonian Libraries Artists' Books collection,[7] and the library of National Museum of Women in the Arts.[8]
In 2021 WSW held a retrospective of her work entitled Walking Lightly, With Intention.[9] The same year WSW created the Anita Wetzel Residency Grant.[5]
