Description |
Detail of drawing by Amy Sillman, from The Umbrian Line (gouache, ink, pencil on paper, approx. 9" x 12", 2000; entire work, 25 sections approx. 15" x 400" total). The image illustrates an early body of work in Amy Sillman's career in the 1990s, when she produced paintings and drawings that moved between figure, landscape and abstraction and fused elements of both mediums into dreamlike, absurd or wistful psychological narratives. This work depicted simple, self-contained figures—often a small, Eve-like woman wandering open grounds (as in this detail)—sometimes amidst a dense "undergrowth" of biomorphic shapes, abstract passages and calligraphic linework. Critics suggest this work took on a feminist perspective that shifted the critique of the gaze from the structure of representation to the feelings that arise when one is aware of being looked at. This work was publicly exhibited in prominent exhibitions, discussed in major art journals and daily press publications. |

Purpose of use |
The image serves an informational and educational purpose as the primary means of illustrating a distinct body of work in the career of Amy Sillman from the 1990s: her early paintings and drawings, which moved between figure, landscape and abstraction, fusing strategies of both mediums into what reviews described as dreamlike, absurd or wistful psychological narratives. This work was rendered in cheery, vaguely acidic palettes and depicted simple, self-contained figures—often a small, Eve-like woman wandering open grounds—amidst a dense "undergrowth" of imagery: Boschian piles of biomorphic shapes, abstract scumbles, drips and calligraphic linework. Because the article is about an artist and her work, the omission of the image would significantly limit a reader's understanding and ability to understand this key stage and body of work, which illuminated new aspects of Sillman's oeuvre and brought further recognition through exhibitions and coverage by major critics and publications. Sillman's work of this type and this series is discussed in the article and by critics cited in the article. |
