The show featured other Minter heroes, including Jane Fonda giving the finger and two large-scale odalisques: Padma Lakshmi, in a bra and a boa, eating oranges, and Lizzo, in a corset, holding an iPhone. Historically, Minter said, such paintings were a sanctioned form of titillation. “They were tits and ass for the public,” she said. “I decided I would make my odalisques women who are really proud of their bodies. They have agency. Lizzo’s talking on the phone to her boyfriend, Myke. She’s actually talking to him while I’m shooting her, and she’s shooting me, too, sometimes.”journey-inline-newsletterinline-newsletter
