Although she later turned to sculpture as her primary medium, Marisol Escobar began painting and drawing during her adolescent years. Religion was also a heavy influence on Escobar and had an effect on some of the works that she later produced. A student of fellow artist, Hans Hofmann, Marisol Escobar became engaged with another movement known as "Abstract Expressionism". It was in the 1950s that Marisol Escobar began to focus her talents on the art of sculpting. Some of her notable works include Father Damien and Dust Bowl Migrants. Marisol Escobar is also known for injecting close acquaintances and celebrities into her sculptures. By the 1960s she had found tremendous success and was credited as having a unique eye and diverse range of talents.

What is Neo-Dada?

Minor visual and audio art movement whose intent is similar to that of Dada artwork. While this art is a revival of some of Dada's objectives, Neo Dada emphasizes the importance of produced artwork rather than the concept used to generate the work. It is regarded as the foundation of Pop art, Nouveau realisme and Fluxus. It is known for its use of absurdist contrast, popular imagery and modern materials.
