Honore Sharrer (1920-2009) was a major art world figure in 1940s
America, celebrated for exquisitely detailed paintings conveying
subtly subversive critiques of the political and artistic climate
of her time. This book offers the first critical reassessment of
the artist: a leftist, female painter committed to figuration in an
era when anti-Communist sentiment and masculine Abstract
Expressionism dominated American culture. Her brightly colored,
humorous, and distinctly feminine paintings combine elements of
social realism and surrealism to seductive and disquieting effect.
This publication is a timely reevaluation of an artist who pushed
the boundaries of figurative painting with playfulness and biting
wit. Distributed for the Columbus Museum of Art Exhibition
