Hannah Wilke

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hannah Wilke (March 7, 1940 - January 28, 1993; born Arlene Hannah Butter in New York City) was an American painter, sculptor and photographer associated with Conceptual Art and Post-Minimalism. Her work explored issues of gender and the body.

Wilke created signature terra cotta and clay sculptures using vaginal iconography^{[citation needed]} beginning in the late fifties and early sixties, and was a forerunner and practitioner of feminist art.
