Visions of Mary Frank

Mary Frank's early artwork in the 1950s earned her a reputation in New York City's art scene as a striking young woman, captured in photographs by notable artists Walker Evans, Edward Steichen, Ralph Gibson, and her then-husband Robert Frank.

Mary Frank's artwork, spanning from the 1950s, defied categorization, yet her creations are now displayed in nearly every major American museum. Her explorations took various forms, including drawings, triptychs, paintings, prints, photographs, and sculpture, with clay figures of magnificent female forms emerging, evoking mythic gods and human vulnerabilities.
