Marisol escobar

Proudly independent, Marisol did not fit into any of the ’60s retrospectively sanctified movements. And yet she played a key role in shaping a cultural shift away from mid-century, atomic-age existentialism (epitomized in art by Abstract Expressionism) toward the visual pizzazz, double-edged irony, and deadpan distillations of Pop. A fascinating, complex figure, she has waited a long time for the resurgence of interest in her work that is now underway.

The artist’s work is on display at El Museo del Barrio—including a print she designed for The Paris Review in 1965.
