{"product_id":"suzanne-perlman","title":"Suzanne Perlman","description":"This book is the first comprehensive monograph on Suzanne Perlman (1922–2020),\na Hungarian-born artist whose life and work spanned continents and artistic movements.\nFleeing Europe during World War II, Perlman began painting in Curaçao, where she lived for 50 years, developing a vivid expressionist style that captured the spirit of the island and its people with rare intimacy. In the early 1950s, she studied at the Art Students League in New York, engaging with Abstract Expressionism, and later worked with Oskar Kokoschka before settling in London, where her practice continued into her late ’90s.\nPublished in collaboration with The Estate of Suzanne Perlman, the book brings together\nleading curators, academics, and critics to explore the full range of Perlman’s oeuvre and life. It includes essays, an archival interview, and over 150 colour images.\nThrough these contributions, the book examines key themes in Perlman’s work: her\ndeep-rooted engagement with place, her expressive depictions of everyday life, and\nher quietly radical artistic independence. It situates her not only as an émigré artist\nshaped by displacement and resilience, but as a timeless example of creative freedom—\none whose work invites renewed attention across generations and geographies.\nWith contributions by Jan Garden Castro, Amiel Clarke, Jan Rudolph de Lorm, Rowan Frame, Margo Groenewoud, Jennifer Higgie, Klara Kemp-Welch, Julia Nagle, Matthew Perlman, Josée Thissen-Rojer, Hans Ulrich Obrist.","brand":"Skira Arte","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53528313561430,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/6644\/5398\/files\/SuzannePearlman.webp?v=1778246832","url":"https:\/\/skira-arte.myshopify.com\/products\/suzanne-perlman","provider":"Skira Arte","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
