About Joyce Reopel
- Joyce Reopel (1933–2019) was an American sculptor, painter and draughtswoman who worked in pencil, aquatint, silver- and goldpoint, and other media.
- Known for her finely wrought detail and lush sensuality, New York Magazine called Reopel "an artisan as well as an artist," while praising her renderings of the figure because "[t]he artist seems consistently to search out that which lies behind the physical trait.
- And having discovered it, she presents it in whispers." The results range from expressive realism to subtle surrealism and outright grotesquerie.
- A Boris Mirski Gallery veteran, from 1959–1966, Reopel is emblematic of Boston Expressionism's humanistic ideals, but unusual in her "understatement and economy." Her contributions helped pioneer an American art movement, and clear a path for other women in the arts.
