Susan Weil (born March 31, 1930) is an American artist best known for her experimental three-dimensional paintings, which combine figurative illustration with explorations of movement and space.
[1] One such piece, Blue Print Photogram For Mural Decoration was included in the 1951 exhibition "Abstraction in Photography" organized by Edward Steichen for the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
On April 9, 1951 a three-page article in Life magazine titled "Speaking of Pictures" appeared, with photographs by Wallace Kirkland documenting Rauschenberg and Weil making blueprints, many of which no longer exist.
[7] In addition to creating painting and mixed media work, Weil has experimented with bookmaking and has produced several limited edition artist books with Vincent FitzGerald & Co. since 1985.
During a period of eleven years Weil experimented with etchings and handmade paper while also keeping a daily notebook of drawings inspired by the writings of James Joyce.
