...passed away today, at age 98. One of the most influential, accomplished women artists ever - a feminist, a comedian, a cultural iconoclast who challenged conformity by dipping into untouched mediums and taboo subject matter, a cutting edge player in a cut throat culture... An art historical treasure.
