Judy Chicago's masterpiece "The Dinner Party" is a monumental work of art conceived as a symbolic history of women in Western civilization. Strategically countering the traditional erasure of women's achievements, this epic installation honours 1038 iconic, mythical, archetypal and historical women. This, the most definitive book to be published on Chicago's masterwork, reveals more fully than ever before the art and the artist's expanded research into the rich history embodied in the installation. In lively contextualizing sections, Chicago discusses the creative genesis of "The Dinner Party", the technical processes involved, and the work's early - often hostile - reception by the art world, and its subsequent preservation and permanent exhibition. "The Dinner Party" is profusely illustrated throughout with documentary images and new photography that displays the work in detail making this the ultimate source on an iconic work that is taught in art history and women's studies courses around the world.

Hardcover. Quarto. Hardcover. Red cloth boards wih stamped titles in illustrated jacket. 308 pages : illustrations (chiefly color) ; 29 cm. "Judy Chicago's internationally acclaimed installation The Dinner Party is a monumental work of art conceived as a symbolic history of women in Western civilization. Strategically countering the traditional erasure of women's achievements, this epic work honors 1038 iconic, mythical, archetypal, and historical women. This, the most definitive book to be published on Chicago's masterwork, reveals the visual and intellectual scope of the installation more fully than ever before, supported by new photography, documentary images, and the artist's expanded research into the history of the women represented. Chicago begins by discussing the creative genesis of The Dinner Party, the dynamism of her collaborative approach to art-making, and the technical processes involved. Mirroring the structure of the installation, the book then divides into three beautifully illustrated "wings," or sections, covering from prehistory to the twentieth century. These explore the remarkable lives of the thirty-nine women symbolically represented as "guests of honor" at The Dinner Party, and of the 999 other women honored in the work. To conclude, Chicago reflects on the work's early--often hostile--reception in the art world and the political arena, as well as the subsequent, decades-long struggle for its preservation and permanent exhibition. At the heart of The Dinner Party is the belief that, by understanding the legacy of women's achievements, women's perceptions of themselves can be transformed. This definitive accompaniment to Chicago's installation continues its purpose and introduces the work to a new generation interested in the relationship between art, culture, and gender politics." -- Publisher's description. VG. Some light shelfwear to jacket. Inscribed by Chicago on the title page otherwise clean and unmarked. N° de réf. du vendeur 209905
