Adventure Bundle of Zines
“Trailblazing Women Defying Norms in Art History".
Embark on a journey with three zines featuring Gwen John, Paula Modersohn-Becker, and Dora Maar. All three intrepid artists defied the conventions of their era. Gwen's adventurous spirit led her to traverse France along the Garonne riverbanks, and for the remainder of her life, she embraced sleeping outdoors, even within the bustling city of Paris. The allure of Paris also captivated Paula, who bravely departed from the security of marriage and an artist commune in Germany to forge her own path in a Parisian studio, where she fearlessly depicted naked mothers nursing their infants. A trailblazer, she became the first artist to paint herself life-sized and unclothed. Dora, in turn, established her own photography studio in the vibrant city, experimenting with techniques that would define the Surrealist movement. Her keen eye for photojournalism documented the harsh realities of the 1930s financial collapse. Together, these audacious women not only fueled the creative energies of their male counterparts but also shattered societal norms for women at the time. Their passions, courage, and groundbreaking examples continue to resonate, inspiring a legacy that transcends boundaries and challenges perceptions.
Inside the bundle, the three zines contain the biographies of each artist, with emphasis on who their allies were and exposing how they have been erased by historians. I also have interactive crossword puzzles and a list of sources and places where you can see their work so you can learn more.
Each zine is a treasure trove of the artist's rebellious tales, unveiling the extraordinary lives behind the art. This is a perfect gift if you know someone in need of a little adventure or a gentle nudge to embrace the unknown.
