Chicago-born Helen Lundeberg (24 June 1908 – 19 April 1999), a noted California artist, Surrealist, and Post Surrealist, moved to Pasadena, California, as a child. Academically gifted and an avid reader, Lundeberg initially wanted to be a writer, but her path changed when she started painting self-portraits, along with paintings of her sister and mother. In 1933, two years after her first group exhibition at San Diego’s Fine Arts Gallery, Lundeberg’s first solo show took place at the Stanley Rose Gallery in Los Angeles. This same year she married Lorser Feitelson, a professor and painter she had met at Pasadena’s Stickney Memorial Art School in 1930.
Just been catching up on your substack writing that I've had bookmarked for ages (if you see a flurry today!) . Didn't know much about Lundeberg's work - it's really beautiful. Thank you x
