BOOK

MUSE TO

MASTER

ART

Dora Maar was way

more than Pablo

Picasso’s muse: The

French photographer,

painter, and poet

was a major influence

in the surrealist art

space in her own right.

Her work, often

political, progressive,

and experimental,

challenged the

perception of woman-

hood and highlighted

the hardships faced

by the disadvantaged

during the Great

Depression. Experience

her unique point of

view in L.A. at the Getty

Center Museum’s

new Dora Maar exhibit,

opening April 21.

EVENTS

SHIFTING TIDES

On April 22, 1970, a year after a monumental oil spill killed over 10,000 sea

creatures off the coast of Santa Barbara, 20 million Americans came

together in protest to fight for the future of our planet. Now celebrated

globally, Earth Day marks its 50th anniversary in 2020. This year’s theme is

climate action; turn to page 108 to read about the climate crusaders

leading the way and visit earthday.org to learn how you can get involved.
