Cityscape
|
As Nancy Mladenoff began her career she was influenced by the artists
Robert Smithson, Jan Dibbets, Barbara Kruger, Jennie Holtzer and Vernon
Fisher. She was born into a family of miners and grew up in Hurley,
Wisconsin, where the outdoors engendered a lifelong interest in nature.
In her work, Mladenoff melds the innocence of childhood and the wisdom of maturity
into a subtle commentary on childhood and nature as well as gender
stereotypes. Children's books from earlier times are a major source
of inspiration. She has done several series' of paintings that depict
gender revisions. For example, she places young girls in her work doing
things, that in the past, were normally done by boys such as holding
slimy creatures.
Her latest explorations can be seen in the print Cityscape.
It takes as its subject the almost exclusively male domain of "outer space"
- another imaginary world in which females seldom participated.
