A member of the Union Square group, Isabel Bishop was a contemporary and colleague of other New York-based Associated American Artists luminaries such as Reginald Marsh, Armin Landeck, Raphael Soyer, and Yasuo Kuniyoshi. Bound by their masterful use of light and shadow, the Union Square group typifies the moody, menacing and joyful images that were born from the post industrial landscape of pre-WWII Manhattan and its environs. Unlike some of her contemporaries who were drawn in by landscape, Bishop focused her attention on the beauty and complexity of people partaking in their everyday activities; virtually all of her subject matter in printmaking is figural.

Isabel Bishop
Isabel Bishop (March 3, 1902 – February 19, 1988) was an American painter and graphic artist. Bishop studied under Kenneth Hayes Miller at the Art Students League of New York, where she would later become an instructor. She was most notable for her scenes of everyday life in Manhattan, as a member of the loosely-defined ‘Fourteenth Street School’ of artists, grouped in that precinct. Union Square features prominently in her work, which mainly depicts female figures. Bishop’s paintings won the American Academy of Arts and Letters Award, among other distinctions.
