Deborah Kass, “No Kidding”

A feminist artist who mines art history, pop culture and her Jewish identity, Kass’s best-known works include parodies of Warhol’s “Elvis” paintings and portraits of Liz Taylor, which ironically led to a 2012 retrospective at the Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh. Fresh off the unveiling of her public sculpture, OY/YO, at Brooklyn Bridge Park, she offers a new series of gloomy black-and-blue paintings adorned with ironic puns rendered in neon lettering.
