“I am interested in people and everything that pertains to them.” ~Janet Sobel’s response for the catalog, A Painting Prophecy, 1950, when asked her motives for creating art. #artist #lifeisart #painter #art #outsiderart #abstractart #abstractexpressionism #femaleartist #quoteoftheday #artquotes #artquotesoftheday
Janet Sobel(1894-1968)American Abstract Expressionism. A self-taught artist who began painting in 1937 at the age of 43. Her son saw something special in her paintings and began to show her work to those in the NY art scene. Sobel’s work was exhibited in the Brooklyn Museum in their annual exhibitions 1943-1945. In 1944, Sobel had her first one person show at the Puma Gallery. In 1945, at 52, her work was curated by Peggy Guggenheim and shown in The Women At The Art Of This Century Gallery. It was here that Jackson Pollock, accompanied by Clement Greenberg, experienced Sobel’s drip paintings and was directly influenced. The rest is history. Sobel, an untrained female artist trailed off into obscurity, while Pollock, a trained artist backed by a famous art critic, became famous for his drip paintings. Thank you, Janet, for thinking outside the box and allowing your creativity to flow. You and your art continues to be a great inspiration. (Photo credits: 1. MOMA 2.
