About the Item

Known for addressing difficult issues, this lithograph by Sue Coe tackles the difficult subject of rape culture. It is numbered in the lower left corner and signed and dated in the lower right. Hung in a black frame with a matching black matte. Dimensions Without Frame: H 18 in. x W 12 in. Artist Biography: Born in Tamworth, Staffordshire, England, Sue Coe, who had studied at the Royal College of Art in London, emigrated to the United States in 1972. Sue Coe began her career in America as an illustrator for the op-ed page of The New York Times, and since that time has had drawings in many publications such as The New Yorker, Time, Newsweek, Rolling Stone and Artforum. She settled in New York City from where she has established a reputation as a sociopolitical artist, mostly doing charcoal drawings. Her work references a wide range of 'not-easy-on-the-eyes' issues including the Ku Klux Klan, sweatshop conditions, animal rights, petroleum industry violations, apartheid, women's rights and AIDS. Her goal is to educate her viewers and not to please them aesthetically. Most of her charcoal drawings are intended to be devoid of her personality in order to free the viewer to focus on the subject.
