Thesis (Ph.D.)--Stanford University, 1992.

Between 1953 and 1966, Niki de Saint Phalle (b. 1930) created a richly varied body of work around the theme of women. She depicted female life experiences in paintings, reliefs and sculptures that at once participate in and begin to critique traditional representations of women. In the years following a serious illness, she painted in a naive aesthetic; she changed course when she joined the Nouveaux Realistes (c. 1960) and invented a novel way to create abstract art by firing a rifle at a canvas. When she returned to figuration, Saint Phalle began making large, disturbing works about familiar cultural stereotypes of woman (as sex object, as mother). In 1965, she began making her so-called Nanas, joyous sculptures of brightly-colored, oversized female forms, frozen in exuberant, active poses.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a Between 1953 and 1966, Niki de Saint Phalle (b. 1930) created a richly varied body of work around the theme of women. She depicted female life experiences in paintings, reliefs and sculptures that at once participate in and begin to critique traditional representations of women. In the years following a serious illness, she painted in a naive aesthetic; she changed course when she joined the Nouveaux Realistes (c. 1960) and invented a novel way to create abstract art by firing a rifle at a canvas. When she returned to figuration, Saint Phalle began making large, disturbing works about familiar cultural stereotypes of woman (as sex object, as mother). In 1965, she began making her so-called Nanas, joyous sculptures of brightly-colored, oversized female forms, frozen in exuberant, active poses.
520 $a Despite the fact that some of these works met with widespread popular success when first exhibited, they remain little-known, and the artist has been largely neglected by historians of modern art. What little has been written about Saint Phalle portrays her according to the familiar model of the outsider, a lone figure working on the margins of mainstream artistic activity. Though appropriate in many ways, this paradigm is inadequate for understanding the complexities of Saint Phalle's prolonged exploration of the theme of women in her art.
520 $a This dissertation takes an alternate approach. The artist is conceptualized as a socially and historically engaged individual, for whom the identity of the outsider is only one of many assumed over a long and varied career. Saint Phalle's art is considered within the context of her life, and also within the history of the women's liberation movement of the 1960s, and wider social and cultural changes of the time. Far from existing outside society and history, Saint Phalle emerges as a pioneering feminist of the 1960s, one of a small group of artists and writers, each working on her own, who began to think about and present themes of women in their art, and whose efforts were part of those myriad events which launched the so-called second wave of feminism.
