The art of Nancy SPERO envelops more than half a century. She is a world-famous feminist artist.

Touching the question of human rights in her works and first of all defending the rights of women, she is widely respected as a fighter against discrimination of any kind.

A woman’s figure has been always in the center of Nancy Spero’s art. She was often criticized for that very thing because many feminists considered and still do that female body is to be banned for portrayal.

On the contrary, Nancy strives for a woman to be adequately portrayed by a woman. Developing the woman theme she uses archetypes, historical and mythic figures together with modern types. She seems to create her own myths as well.

Like her art, her appearance seems fragile and vulnerable… Paper, colors, dreams, images…

But maybe this fragility holds the power?
