Jenny Saville
Jenny Saville is a prominent British painter known for her large-scale, visceral depictions of the human body. Often drawing on themes of femininity and the female experience, her work challenges traditional representations of the female form and explores issues of identity, beauty, and bodily autonomy. In 2018, Saville made headlines when her painting 'Propped' sold for $12.4 million, setting a record for the highest price ever paid at auction for a work by a living female artist. Her bold style and innovative approach have earned her a significant place in contemporary art.
