Artist Eva Hesse died on this day in 1970. This untitled work on view now was one of her final paintings. Hesse was reading Simone de Beauvoir’s The Second Sex at this time, and the text led her to question her own fragmented status as artist, woman, and wife. Her work, though not overtly political, explored these issues in poetic, expressive abstractions. -- source link
