Figures and Figure Relationships

Throughout her career, Hurtado has continually returned to the human figure and figure relationships. In the works on view in this section of the gallery, spanning from the 1950s to the present, we see bodies alone and in different states of interaction—figures embracing, Mother Nature as a figure, and, in recent works, images of birth.
