Description: Revisits the work of Carol Rama, an artist who began working at the end of the thirties "when Europe was plunged into the darkness of the fascist movements" which led to the Second World War. "Feminine and sexualised, the work of Rama belongs to 'the other half of the avant-garde' ... because of both her gender and [her] ability to escape the expectations dictated by the norm"--Adapted from description on p. [3].
Notes: Catalog of an exhibition held in Spain at MACBA, the Museu d'Art Contemporani de Barcelona, 31 October 2014-22 February 2015, and at four other European venues through January 2017.
