"Margaret F. Stewart" (the artist's mom), 1978, from the Guadalupe series by Yolanda López. Born in 1942, Lopez is a painter, printmaker, educator, video artist and activist. "By doing portraits of ordinary women - my mother, my grandmother, and myself - I wanted to draw attention and pay homage to working-class women, old women, middle-aged overweight women, young, exuberant, self-assertive women."
