Noche Crist
Pink Pop Art "In the Sun", 1960s

1960s

About the Item

Psychedelic silkscreen work by Noche Crist (1909- 2004). Self printed by the artist. Wonderful work and one of only two remaining from her estate. Image is from her "In the Sun" series. When work is viewed it creates an optical illusion of movement. Catalogue of a postumous retrospective in 2008 at the American University Museum Katzen Arts Center in Washington D.C. is included. The work is museum quality framed and measures 20" x 24". Signed lower right. The last two photos are of a Christimas card from the artist to Leo Castelli in 1966 from the Smithsonian Archives. Crist's work was recently featured in the inaugural exhibition at the Romanian Cultural Institute in NYC and is in the permanent collection of the Smithsonian and The American Visionary Art Museum in Baltimore. 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.
