Rebecca Morgan: Fear, loathing, and romance

Contributed by Bill Arning / Rebecca Morgan has mounted her sixth solo show at Asya Geisberg’s Tribeca gallery, and one could be forgiven for assuming we already know what it will look like. Morgan has developed a well-loved signature style of crisply drawn, feminist-infused, instantly recognizable images drawn from art history, with large doses of Guston, R. Crumb, and Peter Saul fused with the more confrontational depictions of women by women associated with Lisa Yuskavage, Kathe Burkhart, Betty Tompkins, Judy Glantzman, and Marilyn Minter. Critic John Yau has also linked her work to Li’l Abner and The Beverly Hillbillies, as she brings the denizens of her native Appalachia into fine art.
