Ruth G. Waddy: A Printmaking Prophet

Ruth G. Waddy (1909-2003) came to artmaking later in life, during her early fifties, as an effort to build stronger relationships with artists and improve her advocacy skills. As a result, Waddy created artwork in response to the world around her, incorporating political and social commentary related to the Black community to which she belonged in Southern California.

The Lives of Objects: Still Lifes 
from the MONA Collection

Still life is a genre in art, otherwise known as a category of subject like landscape or figurative, that depicts human-made or natural objects. At first mention, the term may invoke images of flowers in a vase or an arrangement of fruit, but the broad definition of still life means the genre has seemingly endless possibilities.
