Coinciding with her largest European retrospective to date, this striking exhibition catalog presents more than 100 works and 300 images, capturing a body of work that is urgent, unflinching, and deeply original. González dismantles visual hierarchies by reworking images from newspapers, Western art history, and religious iconography into a bold, graphic language all her own. Her iconic early series of paintings The Sisga Suicides (1965) reinterprets a newspaper photograph of tragedy through vibrant stylization, while later pieces—such as Kennedy (John Fitzgerald... (1971) and Interior Decoration (1981)—transform
transform furniture, wallpaper, and public space into sites of political memory.
