Venus of Minneapolis | Size (HxW) : | 103x83 cm | Style : | surrealist | Technic : | Watercolour on paper | Theme : | Magic | Category : | Painting | Year : | 2003 | Desc. : | This watercolor on paper depicts a contemporary view of the Venus of Willendorf. I am fascinated by history and archaeology, particularly the work of UCLA professor emerita Marija Gimbutas. This painting is, in many ways, my homage to Professor Gimbutas. Her research into the art, worldview, and lifeways of the matriarchal societies of Old Europe has been a major influence on my own work. |
