Linda Stein
Feminist Contemporary Mixed Media Fabric Sculptural Tapestry - Nancy Wake 933

2018

About the Item

Linda Stein, Nancy Wake 933 - Feminist Contemporary Mixed Media Fabric Sculptural Tapestry Nancy Wake 933 is from Linda Stein's Holocaust Heroes: Fierce Females series, which highlights Holocaust-era female heroes. Stein began to produce sculptural tapestries in 2013, in which she combines archival images of a subject with her pantheon of female Exemplars--Wonder Woman, Princess Mononoke, Storm, Nausicaa, Kannon, and Lady Gaga--with multiple fabrics and leather. Nancy Wake 933 features Nancy Wake, a British agent during the later part of World War II. She became a leading figure in the maquis groups of the French Resistance and was one of the Allies’ most decorated servicewomen. After the fall of France in 1940, she became a courier for the French Resistance and later joined an escape network. Stein's works are in more than 25 museum permanent collections, including Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, Georgia Museum of Art, and Ringling Museum of Art in the US; Victoria Gallery & Museum and Manchester Art Gallery in the UK; Espoo Museum of Modern Art in Finland; and Konstmuseet i Skövde in Sweden.
