Joan Snyder

Joan Snyder (born April 16, 1940) is an American painter from New York. She is a MacArthur Fellow and a Guggenheim Fellow. Her paintings have been exhibited at several museums, including the de Saisset Museum and the Jewish Museum.





 Joan Snyder's "stroke paintings" from the late 1960s and early 1970s were "abstract compositions, many of them quite large, that are loosely based on a grid format and that together constitute a dissection of the language of painting."The 1980s and 1990s saw a refinement of her earlier vocabulary as "brighter feminine colors and the grid returned. Written phrases, natural materials, and fabrics such as burlap and silks also appeared."





 Her paintings have been described by the Boston Globe as "abstract", "intuitive and spontaneous", and "pointedly political". She also paints with a colorful style, using floral effects which are branded with paint sprinkled with a range of materials,such as jewel-like metal objects.Wikipedia
