Born in Texas, Jean Hyson (American, 1928-2023) is best known for her modernist, sharp edge, paintings. Hyson attended the Art Student League in New York with George Grosz, Yaso Kumiyoshi and William Baziotes and Beaux Artes, Paris, France from 1954-59. She was an Artist in Residence and Instructor at the California College of Arts and Crafts, Oakland from 1970-1974. Her work is held in the Oakland Art Museum, Oakland California, Santa Barbara Museum of Art, Santa Barbara, California and the California Container Corp. of America, Chicago, Illinois.
Jean Hyson and her then-husband Jacques Fabert (who typically painted under the name “Jean Faber Himbert”) were an important force within the midcentury San Francisco art scene. Her work has been featured in countless Bay Area gallery and museum exhibitions—including SFMOMA, the de Young, and the Legion of Honor—and is in numerous public and private collections.
In a fantastic in-depth interview with Hilda Pertha for the December 1970 issue of WESTART, Hyson gave her passionate take on the nascent women’s liberation movement and the positive effect she hopes it will have for female artists:
“If women artists were given the respect male artists have, I feel what they could do would produce fabulous fantastic giants in the art field…A woman has to be able to dream. And the male world has placed limitations on her dreams. This is why it is wrong!
I see a future where females will be encouraged to seek the same educational opportunities as males—to train as composers, surgeons, physicists, artists, politicians. To set a goal the same as the male—to become a senator, Supreme Court Justice, president of the USA!
And not do it part-time while being a ‘housewife’ any more than the male does it part-time being a ‘househusband’—but full-time, because these goals take full-time concentration and attention.”
