Untitled is a 1976 crayon by Mary Beth Edelson, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This collage mixes photos, text, and crayon marks on paper. It looks like magazine cutouts pasted together with bold handwriting layered on top. The edges look rough, like it was torn from a journal. It’s part of a series where the artist played with how women are shown in art. She pasted her own face over famous images, making them hers. The typewriter lines add a sharp, almost angry tone. Look up Mary Beth Edelson for more of her bold, messy work.
Mary Elizabeth Edelson was an American artist and pioneer of the feminist art movement, deemed one of the notable "first-generation feminist artists".
