Snyder, Joan (b. 1940) Orange Poppies.
Est: $5,000 - $8,000
Snyder, Joan (b. 1940) Orange Poppies. 2010. Acrylic, fabric and burlap on paper pulp, initialed in pencil; from a series of 12 unique paper paintings made in collaboration with Anne Q. McKeown, master papermaker, to benefit the Brodsky Center, Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, Philadelphia; 915 x 670 mm; 36 x 26½ in. During the early 1970s, Snyder created "stroke paintings" which utilized a grid to deconstruct abstraction. Further experimentation led to Snyder's eventual abandonment of the grid, and pushed her in new directions. Exploring narrative structure, she used symbols and text in her paintings, and she continues to experiment in her work. Born in Highland, New Jersey, Snyder earned her BA degree from Douglass College in New Brunswick in 1962, and her MFA from Rutgers in 1966. She moved to New York in 1967, and had her first solo show (which sold out) in 1971. She was a founding member of the feminist art group, the Heresies Collective, along with Mary Beth Edelson, Harmony Hammond, Miriam Schapiro, Pat Steir and others. Snyder has won National Endowment of the Arts, Guggenheim, and MacArthur Fellowships and has exhibited internationally. Her work is held in numerous public and private collections, including the Art Institute of Chicago; Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art; Guggenheim Museum, New York; The Jewish Museum, New York; The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; The Museum of Modern Art, New York; Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC; Tate Modern, London; and Whitney Museum of American Art. Provenance Brodsky Center, Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, Philadelphia. Private collection, Houston.

Joan Snyder (American b. 1940) Joan Snyder (American b. 1940) 'Blue Violet' Pastel and pencil on paper Unsigned 23in. x 11in (58 x 28cm) Framed: 32in. x 21in (81 cm. x 53cm) Joan Snyder first gained public attention in the early 1970s with her gestural and elegant "stroke paintings", which used the grid to deconstruct and retell the story of abstract painting. By the late 70s Snyder, abandoning the formality of the grid, began to more explicitly incorporate symbols and text, as the paintings took on a more complex materiality. Often referred to as an autobiographical or confessional artist, her paintings are essentially narratives of both personal and communal experience From the home of a Pacific Heights Collector
