Description
Lily van der Stokker (b.1954) is a Dutch artist based in Amsterdam and New York. Her bold, colourful works most often take the form of large-scale decorative wall drawings and deal, in a disarmingly unashamed and exuberant way, with ideas of beauty, love, relationships, family and the everyday. Playing on stereotypical femininity, she has developed a style she calls 'nonshouting feminism' through which to explore ideas often thought of as 'forbidden' in contemporary art - the decorative, the sentimental and the 'nice.' This fully illustrated book accompanies the largest exhibition of her work to date in the UK.
