Description |
Painting by Joan Moment, Heavenly Bodies Surrounded by Notables (acrylic, latex enamel, gauze, on canvas, 72" x 84", 1983). The image illustrates a key mid-career body of work by Joan Moment: her "Columnar/Planetary" and "Neolithic" series, which consisted of thickly painted, raw, cartoon-like arrangements of floating and stacked Ionic columns, cosmic spirals (as in this work), and biomorphic forms. Paintings from these series employed understated color in crowded arrangements of crude, gestural open-ended forms resembling prehistoric representations of male and female genitalia, teeth, hearts and phalli, with paint-saturated layers that suggested interconnected living tissue or atmospheric, mythic spaces. These paintings were publicly exhibited in prominent venues, discussed in major art journals and daily press publications, and acquired by museums. |

Purpose of use |
The image serves an informational and educational purpose as the primary means of illustrating a key mid-career body of work by painter Joan Moment in the 1980s when she shifted from holistic, iconic compositions to arrangements of floating and stacked Ionic columns, cosmic spirals, and biomorphic, genital-like forms in the "Columnar/Planetary" and "Neolithic" series. These works, which blurred surface and image, were painted thickly them with a cartoon-like sexuality whose rawness and energy reviewers compared to outsider art, paintings by Philip Guston and Jean Dubuffet, paleolithic ritual objects, tantric manuscripts and the stone-cut entangled erotic figures of Hindu temples. Because the article is about an artist and her work, the omission of the image would significantly limit a reader's understanding and ability to understand this key stage and body of work, which brought Moment ongoing recognition through exhibitions in major venues and coverage by major critics and publications. Moment's work of this type and this series is discussed in the article and by critics cited in the article. |
