Eye, Eye, Eye

New York artist Audrey Flack attained art-world fame for her Photorealist painting before turning to sculpture in the 1980s. This print is based on her large-scale 1996 cast sculpture, Daphne (a version of which is now sited in the lobby of UND’s Education building). Though inspired by Greek and Roman art in both its subject and style, Flack’s Daphne was conceived as a contemporary feminist icon. The bullets on Daphne’s head refer to the issue of violence against women in today’s world.Sundog Multiples was a printmaking venture created by Art & Design Professor Kim Fink, in conjunction with UND Art Collections, and generously funded by the Myers Foundations.Known to be a strong advocate for teachers, Flack was the keynote speaker at the National Art Education Association Convention in 2007. During the same year, she came to UND as a Visiting Artist and worked closely with student assistants on multiple editions of prints.
