Elizabeth Murray
Artist Elizabeth Murray has died of cancer at the age of 66. I met her once and I had a similiar impression to the description by Verlyn Klinkenborg in the New York Times: "I have never met anyone in whom frankness and delicacy combined in the way they did in Elizabeth. Her eyes were very bold, and her face seemed constructed to make sure you couldn’t miss that boldness. There was a wildness blowing through her, and to talk to her was to feel that she was consciously effacing, for your benefit, something that would unhinge you if she let it out, which she did in her work."
