“How can we have missed these beautiful compositions?”

This is work by Carmen Herrera, a 94-year old artist who is finally being discovered by the art world. The NY Times just ran an article on her: At 94, She’s the Hot New Thing in Painting.


"Last year, MoMA included her in a pantheon of Latin American artists on exhibition. And this summer, during a retrospective show in England, The Observer of London called Ms. Herrera the discovery of the decade, asking, “How can we have missed these beautiful compositions?”"

How indeed.
