Summary:
"The exhibition will re-introduce the public to Edelheit's radical paintings and pioneering subject matter. The exhibition includes multi-panel paintings from her "Flesh Wall" series, as well as canvases of elaborately tattooed female figures, and works on paper. The works on paper are a major series from the mid-1960s, depicting a wild, erotic vision of circus performers, and images of paper dolls, reimagined into adult fantasies that explore gender identity, sexual costuming, and sadomasochistic play."
