Step Back Into the Eighties With Long-Overlooked Artist Louisa Chase
"Chase developed her own visual language in the 1970s informed by the generations of artists before her but creating something wholly new."
"The show is the largest and most comprehensive dedicated to Chase produced in 25 years and is the first since the gallery announced its representation of the artist's estate."
"While there is renewed interest in overlooked women of the Abstract Expressionist era, women artists in the decades that followed have also suffered the same plight."
"Chase, the brightest star of the '80s art scene, is making a comeback."
Louisa Chase, an American artist, developed a unique visual language in the 1970s, influenced by earlier art movements. By the 1980s, her practice combined formal rigor with playful elements, placing her between Neo-Expressionism and the New Image movement. A solo exhibition at Berry Campbell in New York highlights her significant contributions and the ongoing reassessment of overlooked women artists in art history. Chase's career was marked by mentorship from Philip Guston and collaborations with notable contemporaries, leading to her recognition in major exhibitions.
