Sid Sachs has been writing artists into the art history record for as long as we’ve known him. Tom Nozkowski (at least a decade before he got regular and deserved coverage), Chris Martin, Ree Morton, Rosalyn Drexler– those are a few of the names we knew first through Sachs, who championed them as curator of the UArts gallery, Rosenwald-Wolf.
Amazing, thoughtful review of Sid Sachs’ Seductive Subversion show (originating at Rosenwald-Wolf Gallery and now at the Brooklyn Museum) by Ken Johnson in Friday’s NY Times. The show is Sachs’ original scholarship on the Women of Pop era, long unsung and overlooked.
Some great Pop artists who have fallen off the art historical map are now on view in the exhibit Seductive Subversion: Women Pop Artists 1958-1968, at the University of the Arts.
