Description
Up until very recently, it was believed that abstraction was invented and practised solely by men. However, after re-examination, it seems like it was the other way around: many women abandoned figurative art, as did their male colleagues at the time, to singularly inhabit the vast continent that is art. Vieira da Silva is one of them. Her story is quite extraordinary. Her work was recognised very early on when she was in her forties. She received many prizes, the Grand Prix National des Arts in 1966 and the Legion of Honour in 1979. Her work has been shown worldwide and is now part of some of the most prestigious museum collections in the world: the Guggenheim in New York, the Tate Modern in London, and the Pompidou Centre in Paris. In short, Maria Helena Vieira da Silva is one of the rare female artists to have risen to fame during her lifetime.
