Eva Hesse






EH has an exhibition at CAC in London at present and I am eager to go and see it. I have always found her to be an inspiration in many ways. An artist although very much of her time she has had a long lasting influence. Eva Hesse and Ana Mendieta were two artists that I was very interested in when I was a younger artist living in NYC in the 70's. Although in actual fact I can say that I was interested in a great deal of work going on then. I went to everything I could go to. It was my art education. Performances, dance, music , art, clubs...all of it. I was so hungry and insatiable it was an amazing time for me and to be in NYC then.
I lived around the corner from where Hesse would have lived.
I want to share some of her work here.
