Deborah Kass works in mixed media, and is most recognized for her paintings, prints, photography, sculptures and neon lighting installations. Kass’s early work mimics and reworks signature styles of iconic male artists of the 20th century including Frank Stella, Andy Warhol, Jackson Pollock, and Ed Ruscha. Kass’s technique of appropriation is a critical commentary on the intersection of social power relations, identity politics, and the historically dominant position of male artists in the art world. Kass’s work is in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art; Whitney Museum of American Art; Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum; Jewish Museum; Museum of Fine Art, Boston; Cincinnati Museum of Art; New Orleans Museum; National Portrait Gallery, Smithsonian Institution; Fogg Museum, Harvard Art Museums; and Weatherspoon Museum, among others.

Do you have your eclipse glasses ready?👓 In honor of today's total solar eclipse, we're sharing the painting "The Eclipse" by our member Alma Thomas. For this work in her "Space" series, Thomas took inspiration from the total solar eclipse that occurred on March 7, 1970, and captured the unique way in which the Sun's corona peeks out from behind the moon during this astrological phenomenon.
