On the life and afterlives of Jay DeFeo's Estocada, a work created in the shadow of The Rose
In 1965, Jay DeFeo (1929-89) was evicted from her San Francisco apartment, along with the 2,000-pound colossus of a painting for which she would become legendary, The Rose. The morning after it was carried out the front window, DeFeo was forced to destroy the only other artwork she'd started in six years, an enormous painting on paper stapled directly to her hallway wall. The unfinished Estocada--a kind of shadow Rose--was ripped down in unruly pieces and reanimated years later in her studio through photography, photocopy, collage and relief.
