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. Contents: Acknowledgements; Who's Afraid of Judy Chigago?; In Conversation with Judy Chicago; Through Minimalist to Feminist; 'To Tell of Touch, to Touch by Telling': The Erotics of The Dinner Party; Gestures of Liberation: Smoke and Firework Performances, 1968-1974 Of Woman Born; Metamorphosis as Stasis in PowerPlay and the Holocaust Project; Two Tales of Herstoric Proportion; The End: A Meditation on Death and Extinction; Chronology; Selected Bibliography; Index. 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.
