About the Item
Jolanta Johnsson, experienced Polish artist, graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw, PhD of fine arts, university teacher. She currently lives in Sweden.
This is how she writes about this monotype:
"Monalisa in my image is not smiling. Instead, her large eyes gaze directly at the viewer, while her mouth remains wide open, as if conveying a message or even shouting. It is also possible that the woman is frozen in a state of astonishment or horror.
This particular monotype was created alongside other works that aimed to capture the essence of screaming - one of the most intense reactions to powerful stimuli such as pain, despair, terror, and helplessness. However, in this artwork, the woman is concealed within deep shadows, yet a vibrant red glow surrounds her portrait, casting an illuminating light upon her. Although the famous mona lisa smile is absent, this portrait may still convey a sense of hope, suggesting that the source of wonder or terror will eventually fade away."

- The Nine Lives of Cindy, porcelain plate & official COA in box Lt Edition of 100By Cindy ShermanLocated in New York, NYCindy Sherman The Nine Lives of Cindy, 2019 Printed Bone Porcelain 12 1/2 in diameter Limited Edition of 100 Plate signed verso and also accompanied by plate signed documentation card/official Certificate of Authenticity In original box Produced exclusively for the National Portrait Gallery in the United Kingdom on the occasion of the 2019 Cindy Sherman exhibition which also traveled to the Vancouver Art Gallery. Acquired directly from the National Portrait Gallery before it sold out. Cindy Sherman Biography: Born in 1954 in Glen Ridge, New Jersey, Cindy Sherman lives and works in New York NY. Her ground-breaking photographs have interrogated themes around representation and identity in contemporary media for over four decades. Coming to prominence in the late 1970s with the Pictures Generation group alongside artists such as Sherrie Levine, Richard Prince and Louise Lawler, Sherman studied art at Buffalo State College in 1972 where she turned her attention to photography. In 1977, shortly after moving to New York, Sherman began her critically acclaimed Untitled Film Stills. A suite of 69 black and white portraits, Untitled Film Stills sees Sherman impersonate a myriad of stereotypical female characters and caricatures inspired by Hollywood pictures, film noir, and B movies. Using a range of costumes, props and backdrops to manipulate her own appearance and to create photographs resembling promotional film images, the series explores the tension between artifice and identity in consumer culture which has preoccupied the artist’s practice ever since. Sherman continued to channel and reconstruct familiar personas known to the collective psyche, often in unsettling ways. In 1981, the artist created her Centerfolds, a series of photographic double spreads inspired by men’s erotic...Category
