Dana Schutz and mothers under the time of Covid

TGIF some might say, the end of another long week under the shadow of Covid and chaos. This image of Dana Schutz's, 'Waterfall', a large charcoal drawing from 2016, seemed apt to me today. It's a mother and child, Schutz's brilliant version of a Madonna and Child or in ultra-contemporary terms, a mother who probably has spent the last week juggling her work, her children, the house, and keeping everyone safe. Schutz had a show of new work opening in London at the Thomas Dane Gallery in early June, I hope we will somehow get to see the latest work of this audacious and extremely talented artist.
