About the Item
Linda Stein, Practice Makes Perfect 120 - Signed Feminist LGBTQ+ Colorful Acrylic on Board Painting
Practice Makes Perfect 120 is from Linda Stein's Missives series--a body of work born from her earlier explorations of handwritten letters, calligraphy, and the facial profile. Through the 1960s and 1970s, Stein developed a shorthand for facial features, which she further abstracted in the paintings, drawings, and collages that make up the Missives series.
Stein wrote "My obsession with handwriting gradually morphed into my Profile Writing and Missive Series, and to creations in video, poetry and prose. I was particularly enamored by the “U” (philtrum) under the nose which, with other strokes from my facial profiles, I highlighted in the Missive Series."
Stein's works are in more than 80 museum permanent collections, including Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, Georgia Museum of Art, and Ringling Museum of Art in the US; Victoria Gallery
Museum and Manchester Art Gallery in the UK; Espoo Museum of Modern Art in Finland; and Konstmuseet i Skövde in Sweden.
Throughout her artistic career, Linda Stein's work has addressed issues of persecution and protection, focusing on oppression of the “other” through the lens of anti-bullying and social justice. As result of running for an entire day from the falling Twin Towers in the Ground Zero area of Manhattan, her previously-abstract work after 9/11 became figurative, armor-like, and she realized that she was creating visual and visceral symbols of protection, androgynous sentinel-like figures to stand guard against the foe. Her work often incorporates a family of pop-culture and religious icons like Wonder Woman, Princess Mononoke, Lisbeth Salander, Lady Gaga, Storm and Nausicaa, that start conversations about issues of power and vulnerability. Her works are in more than 25 museum permanent collections, including Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, Georgia Museum of Art, and Ringling Museum of Art in the US; Victoria Gallery
Museum and Manchester Art Gallery in the UK; Konstmuseet i Skövde in Sweden; and Espoo Museum of Modern Art in Sweden. More can be viewed on her website: https://www.lindastein.com/series
