Mistress of the Occult

W MAGAZINE

Once upon a time there was a real Witch of the West. Her name was Marjorie Cameron, and since her death in 1995 at the age of 73, her art-as well as her peculiar life story-has quietly emerged from the city's secret history. Cameron was part of the coterie of artists that revolved around Wallace Berman'k Sd in 1955 ance Berman's Semina magazine, launched in 1955, and the Ferus Gallery, which opened in 1957 and incubated local talents like Robert Irwin, Ed Ruscha, and Ken Price, and introduced Andy Warhol to California in 1962.
