A British artist, Jenny Saville was born in 1970 at the University of Cambridge, England. A year later, in 1988, Jenny graduated from the Glasgow School of Art. She reinvigorated the twenty-first century figurative painting movement in the visual arts, bringing forward in her work poignant questions about society’s perception of the potential of the human form.

Her stylistics are not limited to abstract styles, but also to the figurative classics. In general, her vivid and truly original contemporary paintings of the 21st century can be called neo-impressionism, with a slight haze of surrealism.
