Sculpture
Elizabeth Catlett was a sculptor whose artistic career spanned an impressive six decades, characterized by a rich body of works that are inspired by her experience as a woman of African American and Mexican descent. Throughout her life, across nearly a century from Jim Crow segregation through the Civil Rights Movement into Barack Obama’s first term as president, Catlett has been an ardent feminist and social activist that shines through in the dedication and commitment to her political beliefs found in her artistic practice.
