How did critics view Niki de Saint Phalle's work regarding her use of color?

  • Dull and Subdued

  • Vibrant and Bold

  • Harsh and Irregular

  • Monochromatic

Answer

Vibrant and bold, Niki de Saint Phalle's use of color was often seen as a way to subvert traditional gender norms and challenge the male-dominated art world of the 1960s. Departing from the somber tones typically associated with high art, her bright and unconventional palette aimed to provoke emotional responses and confront the viewer with a sense of immediacy and urgency.
