Lisa Reinertson 2008 Catalogue

$15.00

This book explores the life and works of Lisa Reinertson. Lisa Reinertson is one of Northern California's best figurative sculptors. Her work is an influential and integral part of the history of California ceramic sculpture, of contemporary women's art, and of the re-emergence of public art in America. Her vivid portraits and sculptures filled with images of family, friends and animals are passionately romantic, profoundly touching, and unabashedly personal. The vibrancy of Reinertson's art comes directly from her heart and the intensity of her real-life experiences. Seen collectively, her work is like a visual diary, a vast and colorful journal reflecting the transformative changes Reinertson experienced as she matured as an artist and pondered her roles in life as a daughter, mother, woman, artist, and participant in the vast community of humankind.
