- Published to accompany a major exhibition of new work at the National
Museum of Women in the Arts (September 2019-January 2020)- The first
major monograph on the artist in nineteen years- The book focuses on key
works and redefines her contributions to art history through new essays,
an interview, and art and documentary images- Judy Chicago was named one
of Time magazine's 100 most influential people in 2018 As the first
major monograph on the feminist artist Judy Chicago in nineteen years,
this fully illustrated volume provides fresh perspectives by leading
scholars. Many people know her famed The Dinner Party, installed as the
centrepiece of the Sackler Center for Feminist Art at the Brooklyn
Museum, but few know her other prescient bodies of work - on sex, birth,
death, violence, the natural world, and more. Featuring her newest work,
The End, as well as major examples from throughout her career, this
fascinating, elegantly designed book offers a new examination of
Chicago's wide-ranging artistic expression and powerful voice. The book
is published on the occasion of the artist's eightieth birthday and an
exhibition of new work at the National Museum of Women in the Arts, as
well as the announcement of the Judy Chicago online archival portal.
Published to accompany the exhibition Judy Chicago: The End which will
be on view at the National Museum of Women in the Arts from September
2019 to January 2020.
