Most known for her bold and darkly painted portraits, Brooks was
revolutionary in her feminist renderings of women in resistance.
Openly queer, she challenged conceptions of gender and sexuality in
her art, which also served as her refuge. While many of her male
counterparts were disfiguring and cubing their subjects-often
women-Brooks gave personhood and power to the figures she
painted.Her frank approach to her complicated relationship with her
mother, faith, wealth, sexuality, and gender is complemented by a
keen wit that echoes the gray tones of her work. Though her
paintings are held in major collections, Brooks's influence in
modernist circles of the early twentieth century is largely
underexplored. This new publication, guided by Brooks's own
impressionistic musings, bridges an important gap between the art
and the artist.An introduction by Lauren O'Neill-Butler explores
Brooks's role as an artist in the early twentieth century through
the lens of gender and sexuality.
