Pacita Abad’s Archive Arrives at the Place Where Her Career Started
Pacita Abad in San Francisco, c. 1970–73, from the Pacita Abad archives. (Dept. of Special Collections and University Archives, Stanford University Libraries, Stanford, California)
Before her death in 2004, the artist Pacita Abad traveled to over 60 countries and made more than 5,000 artworks. Only lung cancer stopped her; she died at age 58 in Singapore after completing a large-scale painting installation across the Alkaff Bridge.
