A comprehensive retrospective of the American painter who consistently pursues a critical feminist agenda using a brilliant variety of painterly strategies. Since the late 1980s, American painter Sue Williams has been exploring themes of power and oppression, gender relations, and body politics in her paintings and drawings. The compelling force of Sue Williams's works unfolds in the simultaneity of the personal and the political, humorous caricature, and painterly gestures with an almost shocking explicitness. The catalogue includes paintings, drawings, and collages spanning all phases of the artist's career, ranging from her early works characterized by a cartoon-like style and rendered in black and white to her current colourful pieces oscillating between figuration and abstraction.
