Description

Gloria Feman Orenstein (au); Betty LaDuke (il). Betty La Duke’s universe contains a multitude of mythic visions which come alive in the creative female matrix. Hers is a shaman’s vision, & like the shamans of all cultures, LaDuke has made her own journey to the far ends of the earth. Her travels to Mexico, India, Borneo, Papua New Guinea, China, Nicaragua, Haiti, Africa, & other destinations have fueled her all-embracing mythic seership. There are no class or racial hierarchies in her comprehension of reality. She sees the soul shining through the most humble artifacts; to her way of seeing, “the decorative,” as it appears in embroidery, weavings, & hand-painted objects, represents a basic human drive to create beauty. Includes dozens of her paintings & prints in full color with descriptions.
