Contemporary American expatriate artists reveal
ambivalent attitudes toward mobility, identity, and
global culture. More than an historical overview of
American women artists abroad, this book draws upon
developmental theory and studies of creativity to
explore artists uses of experience, and deconstructs
expatriate experience by weaving theory of
intercultural adaptation and migration with women
artists own descriptions of their search for
identity. Central to the research are four case
studies constructed with oral history narratives that
examine the impact of expatriate experience on four
American women artists: Paris based Laurie Karp,
Grace Renzi, and Kate Van Houten, and Stockholm based
Rachelle Puryear. Candid about their quests for
artistic and creative identities, analysis further
illuminates how the journey becomes the experience
and concludes with implications for art education.
This book speaks to the educators of artists and to
those intrepid American art students going abroad who
believe cultural exposure to be fundamental to their
artistic development.
