Stylized abstractions. One piece brought to mind the Oscar award statue (cast in 1928). The lino-cuts are stylized as well. Both sculptures and prints full of motion. No hidden meanings, everything laid bare. A heroic sense to everything. Catlett’s life was heroic. It would have been interesting to see if she made any working drawings that related to the sculptures.
Thanks for the introduction this formidable artist.
