| Summary: | For more than six decades, San Francisco-based artist Jean Conner (American, b. 1933) has created seductive, clever, and humorous collages. Primarily made from images cut out of such large-format color magazines as Life, and Ladies' Home Journal, Conner's vivid pictorial worlds feature playful arrangements of animals, nature, religious symbolism, aquatic environments, food, and women. Published by the San Jose Museum of Art, Jean Conner: Collage is the artist's first scholarly catalog and brings long-overdue recognition to her extraordinary and fanciful collages. The publication features 70 full-color images of Conner's collages made between 1958 to 2021 and includes rarely seen work from the Conner Family Trust, recent museum acquisitions, and private collections; essays by Kathryn Wade and Rachel Federman; an illustrated autobiography by the artist; and an introduction by Rory Padeken. |
