1930s to 1960s – The Rivington Place Portfolio, 2006, Works on Paper
- Medium
- Hard ground and soft ground etching with spitbite aquatint on Pescia Magnani paper
- Dimensions
- 76 cm h x 51 cm w.
In this print the names of 14 women, all artists, writers and singers, appear surrounded by lines reminiscent of contour lines and seven black stars. All 14 women included in Sonia Boyce's print (with the possible exception of Shirley Bassey) were chosen because they were overlooked in mainstream cultural history because of their race. For women of Boyce's generation, these women were important role models at a time of racial prejudice and discrimination.
