Men invent nothing.

I went to an exhibition about female abstract artists and Hilma af Klint isn’t the only one… :/

Left: Marlow Moss in 1932. Right: Piet Mondrian in 1935.

Left: Janet Sobel in 1946. Right: Jackson Pollock in 1947.

Jackson Pollock admitted that he started making that kind of paintings after seeing Janet Sobel’s work. She was a self-taught female artist and he was a trained male artist who was friends with an influential art critic, so he was remembered as the one who invented “all-over” drip paintings.

On September 11th 1973, US-backed General Pinochet overthrew the democratically elected leader of Chile, Salvadore Allende. Pinochet ordered an air strike on the Presidential Palace, labor activists and famous folk guitarists were rounded up for torture, disappeared, and killed. Pinochet converted the national football stadium into a detention facility like Guantanamo Bay. Chile’s economy was turned into a plantation for the 1%, as inequality and poverty skyrocketed under the imposed Milton Friedman-style economic model. Over 40,000 Chileans became victims of Pinochet’s terror. In response, the Nixon administration committed more money, more training, more torture equipment. The world didn’t begin on September 11th, 2001. Rather, for the first time in modern history, Americans were visited by the same violence the US has imposed since its creation. In Chile, the US murdered tens of thousands and impoverished millions. This wasn’t America’s first foray in international terrorism, nor would it be the last. The United States security state is a terrorist and a plague on the people of the world.
