Inscribed "5/26/98 thinking & doing - and looking and Painting!! !! Gladys Nilsson". Signed copies rarely offered. Gladys M. Nilsson (born 1940) is an American artist, and one of the original Hairy Who Chicago Imagists. The Hairy Who was neither an art movement nor a style. It was simply the name chosen by six Chicago artists when they came together to exhibit as a group in the mid-1960s. They are sometimes referred to in the same breath as the Chicago Imagists, who drew from a wide range of influences including advertising, product imagery, comic strips, Surrealism, German Expressionism, folk art and self-taught art. The Hairy Who members, namely Art Green, Gladys Nilsson, Jim Nutt, Jim Falconer, Suellen Rocca and Karl Wirsum, were graduates from the School of the Art Institute in Chicago. Nilsson received critical recognition early on as well: she is the only artist to have ever won first prize two years in a row in the Art Institute?s Annual Exhibition by Artists of Chicago and Vicinity (in 1967 and 1968). Signed by Author.

Nilsson is a young artist from Chicago of Norwegian background, whose witty, energetic, colorful paintings draw their inspirations from such diverse sources as Surrealism, Egyptian, Persian and African art, Max Beckmann, Hieronymus Bosch, and the writings of Franz Kafka. Although she has developed an international reputation for herself, she is a great admirer of ôOutsider Art.ö This delightful book sheds light on an exciting period in contemporary American art. , English, Year1993, Illust.
