Beatrice Wood (1893 - 1998) was an American artist known as the "Mama of Dada" for her association with the Dada movement and her pioneering work with luster-glazed ceramics. Born in San Francisco in 1893, she defied her wealthy family to become an artist and writer, co-founding the Dada art journal The Blind Man with Marcel Duchamp. Wood began her prolific career in ceramics at age 40, eventually becoming famous for her distinctive lustrous pottery and later for her figurative sculptures and autobiographical writings. She continued to create art until her death at 105, leaving a legacy celebrated in museum collections worldwide and the Beatrice Wood Center for the Arts
