Gloria Heilman-C, contemporary woman artist. Gloria heilman was Beverly Hills, California Icon of the woman's art movement. Her work consists of many extreme elements and images including bronze sculptures which depict iconographic rendering of the female body. Self-portraits done in an expressionist style. Many of her works feature the same imagery as seen in her sculptures. She has had her "Women loving Women" art exhibitions in California, New York and Internationally. She is collected and sells much of her work to a jet set celebrity crowd and the New York Andy Warhol Factory crowd. Though references to pornography and blatant self-promotion are combined in the work of Lynda Benglis, Jeff Koons, Andres Serrano, Richard Hawkins and others, there is usually an attendant critique of, or commentary on, feminism, media, representation, appropriation or portraiture. Vanessa Beecroft's recent event in the lobby of NYC's Guggenheim, which utilized bored, nude and nearly-nude models standing around in Gucci heels and underwear, was more reflective than titillating . But such consideration seemed to be lacking in this decadent performance. "It's about women loving women, just like the title says," said the artist to a group of rapt journalists, adding, "and it's about free love."
