About the Calendar

Grant Wood taught Elizabeth Catlett (b. 1915) to depict "what you know best." Catlett took his lessons to heart: she went on to excel in painting, printmaking, and sculpture (her primary medium). The granddaughter of North Carolina slaves, Catlett views art as a catalyst for social change; indeed, her works rarely fail to inspire, enlighten, or motivate. She portrays the struggles of the poor and the oppressed--particularly those of women, who often bear the brunt of the burdens inflicted by poverty and injustice--with an emphasis on their dignity and strength. Here are twelve of her finest works.
