Hedda Sterne erases the ego

Hedda Sterne, artist, died the other day. She was 100.

I read an interview with her that was published several years ago in "Art in America", and remember copying things she said into a notebook I kept at the time. I can't find the notebook, but when I read of her death I remembered the interview and remembered thinking that she was the sort of artist an artist must be. 

There was complete acceptance of condition and of response, and a continuity of searching. Though she was once pictured and identified with the big boys of modern American art, her life and her work was the attitudinal opposite of "I do not seek, I find."

Apparently she made art until almost the end.
