MODERNIST WOMEN
Views of Our Culture
April 5 through June 28, 2008
Opening Reception: Saturday,
April 5th - 2 to 5 pm
Social criticism has long been a
theme in shows presented at the Tobey C. Moss Gallery; as examples,
works by Max Pollak, Honore Daumier and Rockwell Kent were mounted in
the most recent show.
Modernist Women - the women
artists featured in this current exhibition - is no exception to
that theme.
The collages, drawings, prints and paintings by Joyce Treiman,
Hannelore Baron, June Wayne and Betye Saar reveal
their personal experiences with reflections on social injustice, family
relationships, sad romance and societal mores.
Abstraction, as a form, is brilliantly executed by Mary L. Finley Fry,
Luchita Hurtado, Elise
Seeds and Claire
Falkenstein while tickling humor is depicted in works by Beatrice
Wood and Dorr
Bothwell. Helen
Lundeberg and Ruth Asawa
offer rich views of post-surrealism and forms from nature.
Simultaneously, the beauty of execution, strengths of compositional
structure and nostalgic themes surprisingly convert to calls for active
responses. Their images reach out to the viewers; these images
‘touch’ the empathetic viewers.
