Jane Winakur Gallery

Welcome to the Jane Winakur Gallery, a thoughtfully curated tribute to the life, vision, and work of an extraordinary American artist. This gallery celebrates the vibrant and expressive journey of Jane Winakur, whose bold abstract collages and mixed-media compositions embody a deeply personal yet universal exploration of beauty, spirituality, and imagination. Her art, alive with texture, color, and emotion, reflects a lifetime devoted to experimentation and an unyielding belief in the freedom of creative expression.

Jane’s artistic path began with her early studies at the Dallas Museum, where she honed her technical skills and developed a fascination with form and balance. Over the decades, her work evolved into a language of abstraction that spoke directly to the human spirit. During her influential years in Palm Desert’s thriving art scene, she became known for pushing the boundaries of mixed media, blending paper, paint, and found materials into compositions that seemed to breathe with movement and meaning.

Though Jane has passed, her legacy endures through the remarkable collection lovingly preserved by her family, the last remaining pieces after the tragic loss of much of her body of work. Each surviving piece serves as a testament to her resilience, her boundless curiosity, and her commitment to capturing the unseen dimensions of experience.

We invite you to explore her story, immerse yourself in her visual world, and witness how her art continues to speak across time. In this gallery, Jane Winakur’s voice remains present, vibrant, soulful, and endlessly inspiring, a reminder that art, once created from the depths of the human heart, can never truly fade.
