Summary

"Ignored for decades by the official discourse of art history, Carol Rama (1918) is today confirmed as an indispensable referent in understanding twentieth-century artistic production. This publication offers an itinerary through many of the artist's creative moments in an attempt to recognise and reclaim a body of work which demands to become classic" --, Back of dust jacketRevisits the work of Carol Rama, an artist who began working at the end of the thirties "when Europe was plunged into the darkness of the fascist movements" which led to the Second World War. "Feminine and sexualised, the work of Rama belongs to 'the other half of the avant-garde' ... because of both her gender and [her] ability to escape the expectations dictated by the norm"--Adapted from description on page 3
