Alison Saar - United States
Art Brokerage: Alison Saar African American Artist: b. 1956. Alison Saar was born 1956, in Los Angeles, California. Her parents were Betye Saar, a well-known African-American artist, and Richard Saar, an art conservationist. Both parents encouraged their three daughters, all artists, to look at a wide range of art. Her sculptures and installations explore themes of African cultural diaspora and spirituality, and her studies of Latin American, Caribbean and African art and religion have informed her work. Saar's fascination with vernacular folk art and ability to build an oasis of beauty from cast-off objects are evident in her sculptures and paintings. Her highly personal, often life-sized sculptures are marked by their emotional candor, and by contrasting materials and messages that imbue her work with a high degree of cultural subtext. Saar's work has been exhibited in museums and galleries internationally. Oil paintings wanted.
