About the Item

Linda Stein, Spoon to Shell 894: Shells Only - Mixed Media Shell Wood Contemporary Assemblage Sculpture Spoon to Shell 894: Shells Only is from Linda Stein's Holocaust Heroes: Fierce Females series, which highlights Holocaust-era female heroes. According to Stein: “The everyday spoon was like gold to a victim in a concentration camp. With it, one could avoid putting lips to tuberculosis-infested urns of watery gruel being passed around. Reading about sexual abuse during this period, I discovered a spoon was sometimes ‘given’ in return for sexual favors. In this series of work, the spoon became a metaphor of the victim’s continuous trauma. I wonder: what would I have given up to obtain a spoon? Mulling around these various meanings and images, brought forth by the spoon in the context of women in the Holocaust, I found myself creating this series of box sculptures within an amalgam of mixed materials, words and associations." Spoon to Shell 894: Shells Only was exhibited at Ronald Feldman Gallery in New York. Stein's works are in more than 25 museum permanent collections, including Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, Georgia Museum of Art, and Ringling Museum of Art in the US; Victoria Gallery & Museum and Manchester Art Gallery in the UK; Espoo Museum of Modern Art in Finland; and Konstmuseet i Skövde in Sweden.
