In 1974 Susan Rothenberg transformed the history of painting with her singular and iconic body of horse paintings. ‘Black Blocks’ (1977)—first exhibited at P.S.1 Contemporary Art Center (now MoMA P.S.1) in 1977—is one of the supreme examples of her inventive new approach to painting and figuration.
‘Coping’ (2008) is a masterful example of Nicole Eisenman’s allegorical paintings, which merge the autobiographical with art history and fiction to create a cutting critique of present-day social and political conditions.
Exhibited at important institutions including the Kunstmuseum Bern, Schirn Kunsthalle Frankfurt and the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, Humlebaek, Meret Oppenheim’s late painting, ‘Das Auge der Mona Lisa’ (1967) exemplifies the artist’s subversive practice, transforming a familiar and iconic image into something uncanny, captivating, and powerfully autonomous.
