MARISOL

Marisol, an Artist Known for Blithely Shattering Boundaries, Dies at 85





Another woman artist I admired who I discovered through my obsessively buying books on Pop Art though she was a unique voice and really stood outside any movement, she was fascinating like Larry Rivers, RB Kitaj and a generation of artists trying to say something 'different' with a singular approach where the rules have gone out the window
Older than many of her generation of artists discovered at this time somehow,  the feminist approach to art history will note her importance I trust for somehow she has been written out of art history thus far, it is reported she has passed away aged 85
