June Wayne

Plot

In 1960, June Wayne founded Tamarind Lithography Workshop, and if she had done nothing more her place in the history of American art would have been established. However, apart from Tamarind her conceptual and technical innovations are the mark of a highly original artist. This volume examines her life's work in all media, including painting, graphics, and tapestry designs. She has investigated time and space, the genetic code and molecular energy, stellar winds and magnetic fields. Her interest in optics of the 1950s contributed to a satiric narrative style that appears and reappears in the form of autobiography as well as in oddly convincing metaphor.
