Buffie Johnson passed away August 11, 2006. She was relentless in finding the means to visualize expanded consciousness. She was also one of the last living links to the prewar modern art of Paris and played an important, if under recognized, role in bringing that culture to America. Buffie Johnson is one of a handful of artists to have contributed to the development of Abstract Expressionism and feminist art.
Buffie Johnson will be posthumously awarded Lifetime Achievement in Art Award by the College Art Association and WCA (Women's Caucus of Art) on February 17th, 2007.
