Betye Saar (American, b. 1926), The Long Memory. Original 18-color screenprint, 1998. 100 signed and numbered impressions on Somerset UK printed at Grsham Studio Ltd. in Cambridge, England. Saar's early work attempted to destroy rascist stereotypes of African Americans; her more recent work explores her "deep-felt interest in the occult, astrology, and African consciousness." According to Yolanda M. Lopez and Moira Roth in The Power of Feminist Art, edited by Norma Broude & Mary D. Garrard (Abrams, 1994), "Over the past twnety years, Saar . . . [has] traversed her mystic worlds in which she weaves together interests in the occult, family, and black culture and history" (146). Image size: 370x296mm. Price: $2750.
