  • Miriam Schapiro, 91, a Feminist Artist Who Harnessed Craft and Pattern, Dies by William Grimes June 24, 2015
    Miriam Schapiro, 91, a Feminist Artist Who Harnessed Craft and Pattern, Dies By William Grimes June 24, 2015 Miriam Schapiro, a pioneering feminist artist who, with Judy Chicago, created the landmark installation Womanhouse in Los Angeles in the early 1970s and later in that decade helped found the Pattern and Decoration movement, died on Saturday in Hampton Bays, N.Y. She was 91. Her death was confirmed by Judith K. Brodsky, the executor of her estate. Ms. Schapiro, who broke through as a second-generation Abstract Expressionist in the late 1950s, embraced feminism in the early 1970s and made it the foundation of her work and career. From that point, she dedicated herself to redefining the role of women in the arts and elevating the status of pattern, craft and the anonymous handiwork of women in the domestic sphere. “Mimi came to feminism later than most of us, in early middle age,” said Joyce Kozloff, one of Ms. Schapiro’s allies in the Pattern and Decoration movement. “It shook her world, transformed her into a radical thinker. She was a vocal, outspoken presence — a force.” In 1971, at the newly created California Institute of the Arts, she and Ms. Chicago founded the Feminist Art Program. (An earlier version of the program had been established at Fresno State College the year before.) It quickly became an important center for formulating and disseminating a new understanding of art based on women’s history and social experience. That year they enlisted 21 students and several local artists to create Womanhouse, taking over a decaying Hollywood mansion that made an effective set for dramatizing the American home as a prison for women and their dreams.

  • Lessons in Promiscuity
    LESSONS IN PROMISCUITY: PATTERNING AND THE NEW DECORATIVENESS IN ART OF THE 1970s A ND 1980s ANNA KATZ Robert Zakanitch Dragon Fire, 1983 16 In 1975 in New York a group of artists gathered in the Warren Street loft of Robert Zakanitch to discuss a shared tendency that had emerged in their work in the preceding several years. Joyce Kozloff in her colorful paintings was combining patterns gleaned from architectural ornamentation, pottery, and textiles observed in Mexico, Morocco, Turkey, and Spain (fig. 1); Tony Robbin was using a modi- fied spray gun and patterned stencils to create spatially complex grids in lyric colors (pp. 122–25); Zakanitch was making paintings of massive, luscious blossoms in repeated patterns that evoked wallpaper and linoleum rugs (fig. 2); and Miriam Schapiro was collag- ing found bits of lace and other domestic fabrics associated with women’s lives in boisterous compositions (fig. 3). Joining them was Amy Goldin, an art critic with a strong interest in Islamic art, who had identified an “oddly persistent interest in pattern” in the 1 1 Amy Goldin, “The ‘New’ Whitney 1975 Whitney Biennial. Biennial: Pattern Emerging?,” Art in America, May/June 1975, 72–73. It is tempting to imagine that they gathered in secret, huddling together to confess their shared trespass, their violation of one of the strongest prohibitions of modern art: the decorative. But in truth their art was exuberant, and so were they, giddy with the thrill of destabilizing entrenched hierarchies, and the possibilities that unleashed. They identified

So were Ida Applebroog, Harmony Hammond, May Stevens, Carolee Schneeman, Cecilia Vicuna, Emma Amos, Joyce Kozloff, Mary Beth Edelson, Joan Braderman (who made the new documentary, The Heretics), Lucy Lippard, Elizabeth Murray. See for yourself. In a scene in the movie The Heretics (2009), painter Miriam Schapiro leans in to read aloud a block of Adrienne Rich text on one of her works, and opines that she might cry. But it wasnt the verse that Schapiro read, but this Rich line — a wild patience has taken me this far – that cries to be remembered in connection to the new Joan Braderman documentary film about the women who formed, created and recreated the journal Heresies (1977-92/New York City). They strove as they did so to perfect and redefine the relationship of words and images to experience, all of it distilled and communicated through womens work. Heresies was a printed journal that coalesced at the point of a movement whose only organizing force was the non-hierarchal female in self-discovery as an artist, writer, critic, and unabashed feminist. That these women had a lot to say goes without saying.
