- Lot Description
(New York/Oklahoma, 1934-2014)
Green Vertical, 1964, foam resin and epoxy resin on Masonite with acrylic and oil, 96-1/4 x 48 x 10 in. (243.8 x 121.9 x 25.4 cm.)
Note: John Yau, in his essay for the exhibition, references this work and others such as Green Horizontal, stating in summary, "...Strider not only underscores that growth and ripening are an inherent part of the life cycle, but openly celebrates sexuality and desire. Strider may well have intended to undermine minimalist insistence on paint just being paint. That Strider did these works at a time when literalism was preferred over associations of any sort amounted to a direct challenge to the Minimalist credo, which Frank Stella pithily stated as 'what you see is what you see.' Not so in Strider's work. She might sum up her work of the 1960s this way: what you see is what you are thinking. And what everybody seems to be thinking about, is sex. Her work is an uncomfortable reminder of our baser instincts. This is why she needed to make it 'comically obscene.' Laughter is a form of release, a way to diminish the tension as well as acknowledge the conflict."Exhibited: Hollis Taggart Galleries, New York, Marjorie Strider, March 10-April 2, 2011, No. 28, ill. (accompanied by a copy of the catalog and a magazine)
