After studying painting at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts, Paris (1949) and then at the Art Students League (1950) and the Hans Hofmann School (1951\u20134) in New York, she developed an interest in Mexican, Pre-Columbian and American folk art and turned her attention to sculpture. In her early work she fashioned small, animated figurines out of bronze, terracotta and wood, often placing these pieces in compartmentalized, glass-fronted boxes. In 1961 she began to incorporate drawing, painting, and\u00a0<em>objets trouv\u00e9s<\/em>\u00a0into complex, life-size figure arrangements. Cast fragments of her own body and images of her face frequently appear in her works from this decade, many of which address the position of women in modern society. Marisol\u2019s images of contemporary culture, at once deadpan and satirical in tone, were produced in the context of Pop art; the personal, enigmatic, often primitive elements of her work, however, set it apart from the mainstream of the movement. In the early 1970s she carved small, exotic fishes out of mahogany, with her own face on them, and produced a series of prints and drawings. In the 1980s she returned to large-scale figural assemblages, creating a series of portrait \u2018homages\u2019 to well-known contemporary artists and personalities. Her works have been acquired by prominent international collections such as The Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Museum of Modern Art, The Whitney Museum of Art among others. Most recently, in 2014 El Museo del Barrio of NYC included Marisol in their \u201cWomen in Art\u201d Series with the exhibition\u00a0<em>Marisol, Sculptures and Works on Paper,\u00a0<\/em>which VAEA was proud to support. Marisol passed away on Saturday April 30<sup>th<\/sup>, 2016 at the age of 85 in New York City.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div><div  class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion_builder_column_1_2  fusion-one-half fusion-column-last 1_2\"  style='margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:20px;width:48%'>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper\" style=\"background-position:left top;background-repeat:no-repeat;-webkit-background-size:cover;-moz-background-size:cover;-o-background-size:cover;background-size:cover;\"  data-bg-url=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"fusion-text\"><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>La Medalla P\u00e1ez de las Artes<\/strong>\u00a0ser\u00e1 otorgada durante la Gala ben\u00e9fica anual de VAEA en Noviembre 2016 en la ciudad de Nueva York en una ceremonia en homenaje a la artista pl\u00e1stica venezolana <strong>Marisol<\/strong> (22 mayo 1930 \u2013 30 abril 2016).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">El Fondo Venezolano Americano para las Artes celebrar\u00e1 la vida y el trabajo de Marisol Escobar, cuyo talento de avanzada y visi\u00f3n \u00fanica le han merecido un lugar en la historia como una de las grandes artistas de su generaci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sobre Marisol<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Mar\u00eda Sol Escobar nace en Francia de padres venezolanos, Marisol se dio a conocer internacionalmente por sus esculturas y obras de Pop art. Despu\u00e9s de estudiar pintura en la Ecole des Beaux-Arts en Paris (1949) y en la Liga de Estudiantes de Arte (1950) y la Hans Hofmann School (1951-4) en Nueva York, desarroll\u00f3 un inter\u00e9s por el folklore Mexicano, Norteamericano y Pre-colombino y fijo su atenci\u00f3n en la escultura. En sus primeros trabajos realizaba peque\u00f1as figurinas animadas en bronce, terracota y madera, las cuales colocaba repetidamente en cajas compartimentadas con frente de vidrio. En 1961 empez\u00f3 a incorporar dibujo, pintura y objetos encontrados en complejas instalaciones de figuras de tama\u00f1o real. En su trabajo de esa d\u00e9cada, suelen aparecer partes de su propio cuerpo moldeadas en yeso e im\u00e1genes de su cara, frecuentemente referenciando la posici\u00f3n de la mujer en la sociedad. La postura de Marisol sobre la cultura contempor\u00e1nea, con su tono impasible y sat\u00edrico a la vez, se produjo en el ambiente del Pop art, sin embargo, los elementos personales, enigm\u00e1ticos y a veces primitivos de su trabajo lo separaban del movimiento Pop m\u00e1s establecido. Al principio de los a\u00f1os setenta, tall\u00f3 peque\u00f1os y ex\u00f3ticos peces de madera de caoba con su propia cara en ellos, y produjo una serie de impresiones y dibujos. Durante los ochenta volvi\u00f3 a los ensamblajes figurativos de gran escala, creando una serie de retratos homenaje de personalidades y artistas contempor\u00e1neos. Sus obras se encuentran en importantes colecciones tales como el Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Museum of Modern Art y The Whitney Museum of Art entre otros. Recientemente en el a\u00f1o 2014, el Museo del Barrio de Nueva York incluy\u00f3 a Marisol en su serie <em>Women in Art<\/em> (Mujeres en el arte) con la exhibici\u00f3n <em>Marisol, Sculptures and Works on Paper<\/em> (Marisol, Esculturas y Trabajos en Papel), muestra de la que El Fondo Venezolano para las Artes est\u00e1 orgulloso de haber contribuido como patrocinante. Marisol falleci\u00f3 este pasado 30 de abril 2016 a la edad de 85 a\u00f1os en la ciudad de Nueva York.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div><div  class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion_builder_column_1_1  fusion-one-full fusion-column-first fusion-column-last 1_1\"  style='margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:20px;'>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper\" style=\"background-position:left top;background-repeat:no-repeat;-webkit-background-size:cover;-moz-background-size:cover;-o-background-size:cover;background-size:cover;\"  data-bg-url=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"imageframe-align-center\"><span class=\"fusion-imageframe imageframe-none imageframe-1 hover-type-none\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/vaearts.org\/US\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/ThePaez.jpg\" width=\"200\" height=\"200\" alt=\"\" title=\"ThePaez\" class=\"img-responsive wp-image-8938\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vaearts.org\/US\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/ThePaez-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/vaearts.org\/US\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/ThePaez.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/span><\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div><div  class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion_builder_column_1_2  fusion-one-half fusion-column-first 1_2\"  style='margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:20px;width:48%; margin-right: 4%;'>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper\" style=\"background-position:left top;background-repeat:no-repeat;-webkit-background-size:cover;-moz-background-size:cover;-o-background-size:cover;background-size:cover;\"  data-bg-url=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"fusion-text\"><h3>About the P\u00e1ez Medal of Art<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The P\u00e1ez Medal of Art is awarded once a year to an individual or group that has had an impact and contributed to the excellence, growth, support and proliferation of the arts in Venezuela and the United States; Historically The P\u00e1ez is bestowed to living artists, however an exception has been made on this occasion as Marisol had been unanimously selected by VAEA\u2019s Board of Directors to obtain the award and given the official notification before her death on April 30<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a02016.
