About the Item
Joyce Wieland (1931-1998) is one of the most accomplished and versatile Canadian artists. She achieved a level of commercial and critical success in her lifetime that was exceptional for a woman in her era in a male-dominated field.
Wieland established new benchmarks for what was possible for a female artist to achieve. Notably, she was the first female artist to have a solo exhibition at the National Gallery (Ottawa) in 1971.
Many of her innovative creations predate similar works by female artists of the late 20th century - Tracey Emin's crotchet works are one of several examples.
Beginning in the 1960s, Wieland explored the role of women, the body, nationalism and relationships through a wide variety of media. She was a prolific illustrator and created many intimate works on paper which mocked common portrayals of women throughout history.
The artist's work in this area was the subject of a major exhibition, Joyce Wieland: The Female Nude, held at the Art Gallery of Ontario in 2000.
This drawing exemplifies Wieland's confident depictions intimate moments.
Joyce Wieland's works can be found in numerous public collections across Canada including the National Gallery (London) and the Art Gallery of Ontario (Toronto) to mention a few.

- Pondering being Naked - Sexy Girl taking off Bikini - Female CartoonistLocated in Miami, FLThis work clearly has homosexual overtones which in the mid-'40s was as daring as showing nudity. I am not sure if this was the artist's intention but the salesgirl and the model look identical and she signs it twice Shermond. Added to this is a strobe light effect where the model's image is partly replicated giving the impression of 2 figures. She's lost in thought pondering the notion of removing the bows and seeing the consequences. Meanwhile, the sales girls ( perhaps her alta ego - perhaps an admirer ) eggs her on. Caption: "You can always remove the bows if you think they're too fussy." Cover cartoon for unknown publication - Signed "Shermund" twice in the lower right image, dated on verso, and captioned in graphite in the lower margin.
