Con la segunda mitad del siglo XX, la mujer ha irrumpido en la escena artística. Pioneras de principios de siglo (como Goncharova, Delaunay y luego Hanna Höch y Oppenheim) abrieron paso a otras como Barbara Hepworth en los 50. Es una nueva división del trabajo con otro sexo, otra forma y otros materiales. ¿Y no será más complejo que todo eso?
La revolución de la mujer ha sido tan importante y rápida en el siglo XX que aún, a mi entender, no ha habido historiador/a que haya sido capaz de plasmarla en resultados. De la misma manera que ha sido positiva para su propio sexo ... yo creo que el opuesto se encuentra, hoy por hoy, aún perplejo y sin palabras. Como víctima, permítanme valorar dentro del arco a sus opuestos, por un lado, la rudeza inteligente de Oppenheim y en el otro la sensibilidad elegante de Peyton.

No es cierto que una imagen hable más que mil palabras. Por eso vienen a la mente mujeres de palabras como Marguerite Yourcenar, Clarice Lispector, Anis Nin, Rosario Castellanos, Marguerite Duras, Simone de B., taaantas otras llamas incendiarias como las que exhibe hoy tumiami. RI
ResponderEliminarTriff, Here's another great sculptor, thart perhaps you don't know of...
ResponderEliminarAnna Vaughn Hyatt Huntington (1876 - 1973) was born in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Her father was a professor of Paleontology at Harvard and from him she developed her interest in animals. She studied sculpture in Boston with Henry Kittleson before enrolling at the Art Students League where she studied under Herman Atkin MacNeil. Her earliest works consisted of domestic animals and dogs beginning with her 1903 exhibition at the Society of American Artists in New York of her sculpture of two horses titled Winter Noon. She exhibited the same sculpture again at the Louisiana Purchase Exposition in 1904 and continued exhibiting throughout her life. She spent much time at the Bronx Zoo sketching and modeling the wild animals there. She went to France and Italy to study as was popular with American artists at that time, receiving many awards and honors for her works there. She won the Purple Rosette of the French Government and was made a Chevalier of the Legion d'Honneur for her equestrian group of Joan of Arc. In 1923 she married the philanthropist Archer Huntington and in 1931 Mr. Huntington purchased 10,000 acres and built Brook Green Gardens near Charleston, South Carolina as a home and studio for his wife. There she entertained all of the famous artist of the day providing a location and the tools needed for her to work undisturbed by the impositions of the outside world. Anna Hyatt Huntington was one of the most prolific American artist of the 20th century, producing hundreds of models that were cast in bronze and some even in aluminum. Her studio at Brookgreen Gardens is open to the public and houses not only examples of her works but the works of many of the most famous and talented artists of her time.
Among her many sculptures the one that many of you may have seen is the equestrian monument of Jose Marti, 1959 (dedicated 1965), New York Central Park South at Sixth Avenue (Avenue of the Americas).
