Brownian Motion Posted May 30, 2004 Author Report Posted May 30, 2004 Here's a nice little woodcut from Helen West Heller, dating from 1947. Her favorite subject was people working. Quote

maren Posted June 1, 2004 Report Posted June 1, 2004 very nice, thanks maren You're welcome! Some of her work doesn't "read" as well in photos -- you need to be in the room with it -- but this one does, I think. Quote
maren Posted June 1, 2004 Report Posted June 1, 2004 Alice Neel: Richard in the Era of the Corporation. 1979. Oil on canvas, 60 x 45 in. From the catalog of a UC-Santa Barbara exhibition: "Neel portrayed specific people and also described their times, the Zeitgeist, in portraits that span a period of more than fifty years. She saw the 1970s as a time when individuals were increasingly subjugated to the power of corporations. She particularly worried about her son, who was then working as a corporate attorney; here, she shows him literally backed into a corner. The mirror provides Neel with the opportunity to make a double portrait." BTW, she was 79 when she painted this: Quote
