About the Item

Silkscreen work by Noche Crist (1909- 2004). Marked in pencil 3/15 lower left. Printed by the artist in the 1970s. Image is from her Year of the Ram series. Catalogue of a postumous retrospective in 2008 at the American University Museum Katzen Arts Center in Washington D.C. is included. The Romanian born, self-taught artist is known for her acrylic paintings on wooden panels and shaped transparent polyester resin sculptures that create images reminiscent of her childhood at her family's country estate outside Bucharest. Her works depict dreamlike, surreal scenes of partially dressed women posing seductively in opulent, sometimes fantastical, settings. In other paintings and panels, she portrays bare-breasted women and felines sensually intertwined. Noche Crist was well known not only for her paintings and sculptures but also her storytelling and entertaining that helped turn her into a legendary figure in the Washington D.C. art scene. Her works gained a following among art patrons, including Olga Hirshhorn, one of Washington's leading art collectors.
