What does this mean?
Like any work of art, this is open to interpretation. I see the nudity of two lovers as speaking to the changes that were happening in the 1970s, during the Sexual Revolution.
McCannon was part of a group of women that gathered together to create a supportive community. They addressed really practical concerns, such as watching one another's children so that individual artists could produce work.
Hi, I'm a student from PSC and I would like to know more about this work!
Hi! McCannon was part of a group of women that gathered together to create a supportive artistic community. In addition to making art, they addressed really practical concerns, such as watching one another's children so that individual artists could produce work.
Like any work of art, this is open to interpretation. We could view the nudity of the two lovers as relevant to the social changes that were happening in the 1970s, during the Sexual Revolution. Take a look at the different textures she is evoking through her technique...the hair, skin, and background all have different looks.
Thanks!!
In this section of the show, you'll see a lot of art that depicts the bodies of black Americans and gets us to think about identity and relationships.
