Pacita's most extensive body of work is her vibrantly, colorful, trapunto paintings, mixed media painted textile collages and abstract assemblages. Many are very large canvases incorporating hand-stitched textiles, ribbons, sequins, beads, buttons, tin, mirrors and many other found objects the artist collected during her travels throughout Africa, Middle East, Asia and Latin America. During her 32-year career Pacita also created works on a complete range of other materials including paper, prints, bark cloth, metal, ceramics and glass. Just a few months before she passed away, Pacita painted a 55-meter long bridge in Singapore and covered it with 2,350 multicolored circles."-- Artist website:

Getsy -- Women and Painting : Rejections of Rejections / Kirsty Bell -- How to Make a World : Black Women Artists Now / Jessica Bell Brown -- The Computational Logic of Contemporary Painting / Glria Sutton.This book explores the bold vision and vast range of achievements of women artists working predominantly across North America from the late 1960s into the present moment. The paintings, sculpture and mixed-media works featured are drawn from the Shah Garg Collection, which is dedicated to illuminating the critical role that women have played in shaping the development of abstraction and the narratives of art more broadly. Making Their Mark includes two sweeping essays by editors Mark Godfrey and Katy Siegel, writings by six scholars on topics relevant to the depth of the collection, such as the importance of craft traditions, artistic experimentation with new technologies and the impact of personal and communal identity on artmaking, as well as lively texts by 15 artists about the artists who inspire them. Richly illustrated with works by 136 artists, this volume offers new insights that make it a resource for students of art and general readers alike.

Catalog of the 60th International Art Exhibition, held April 20-November 24, 2024.The blockbuster two-volume guide to the Venice Biennale, with over 1,000 illustrations. The 60th International Art Exhibition of the Venice Biennale, curated by Adriano Pedrosa (artistic director of the Museu de Arte de São Paulo), is titled Foreigners Everywhere. It takes its name from a series of artworks made in 2004 by the collective Claire Fontaine, and is, as Pedrosa explains, "a celebration of the foreign, the distant, the outsider, the queer as well as the Indigenous." It "will focus on artists who are themselves foreigners, immigrants, expatriates, diasporic, emigres, exiled and refugees--especially those who have moved between the Global South and the Global North." Pedrosa divides the exhibition into two parts: "Nucleo Contemporaneo," for contemporary artists, and "Nucleo Storico," for historical ones. The former expands upon the concept of the "foreigner" or "outsider" artist, while the latter examines artworks created in the Global South between 1905 and 1990. The catalog, copublished by Silvana Editoriale and Edizioni La Biennale di Venezia, is, as with the 2022 publication, printed in two volumes, and follows the exhibition route to accompany visitors and art lovers through the exhibition spaces of the Giardini and the Arsenale. It also presents the other projects on display in various locations around the city of Venice and at Forte Marghera in Mestre.
