While she started her career as a fashion model, a subsequent breakdown led to her taking up painting as therapy. Entirely self-taught, Niki spent the rest of her years devoted to art that was based in emotional truth and a feminist point of view.\r\n\r\n This graphic novel follows Niki's extraordinary career, from her early \"shooting pictures,\" in which she fired bullets at bags of paint, to the creation of the exuberantly formed life-sized dolls she called \"Nanas,\" which established her as an international success. The book also looks at her close collaborations with her husband and fellow artist Jean Tinquely  her painting, drawing, assemblage, performance art, and large-scale installations  and her work in film, theater, and architecture. The texts explore how Niki tackled social and political issues and institutions- and shows why her work remains as eloquent and powerful today as when it was first created.\r\n\r\n Looking beyond her brightly colored sculptures, this book tells the story of a woman who fought for a fairer world  a headstrong outsider, who made a name for herself in the male-dominated art world of the day  and an autodidact, who became one of the greatest artists of her time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen possible we will add details of the items we are selling to help buyers know what is included in the item for sale.
