Book Description:
|
Maria Lassnig is one of the most radical female artists of our time: her self-portraits depict her with sagging breasts, wearing a pot on her head or even as a dumpling. Maria Lassnig calls her works body-consciousness paintings, and what they show is rarely flattering. The book shows works from Maria Lassnig's more recent period, since 1998, and previously unpublished paintings from 2009.
