Janet Cooling, Diwali (2004)
Janet Cooling was a pioneering figurative painter known for integrating lesbian and feminist themes into her work. She received recognition in New York during the 70's and 80's and was featured at the New Museum. As a passionate educator, Cooling influenced a generation of artists, leaving a lasting legacy as a courageous and transformative figure in contemporary art.
Work from the Estate of Janet Cooling is being sold to benefit ArtBridge, a public art non-profit dedicated to transforming building sites and unused urban spaces into vibrant cultural assets through art installations and exhibitions. The exhibition of Janet Cooling and Michelle Weinberg marks their opening of Studio 502 which will continue to showcase exhibitions in their front room gallery as well as their office space. This presentation of Weinberg's work coincides with ArtBridge's production of her public art exhibition River Semaphore, currently on view at Battery Park.
