  • Feminist Art Icon Judy Chicago Isn't Done Fighting
    Feminist Art Icon Judy Chicago Isn’t Done Fighting By Gloria Steinem December 11, 2017 Photography: SEBASTIAN KIM JUDY CHICAGO IN BROOKLYN, OCTOBER 2017 For ten years now, Judy Chicago’s 20th-century masterpiece The Dinner Party has been on permanent view at the Elizabeth A. Sackler Center for Feminist Art in the Brooklyn Museum. It’s become such a fixture there that it is hard to imagine the shock and vitriol the piece caused when it was first displayed in 1979, after four years and hundreds of hands went into its production. The Dinner Party went against so many mores, even by progressive art-world standards: it was overtly political, its content directly championing women’s rights and liberation; it was constructed not by an auteur but by a community; it was comprised of ceramics and needlepoint, “decorative arts” associated with feminine domesticity. Chicago’s sculpture was—and is—radical, correcting the boldfaced names of history while inspiring a new way of conceiving open, activist art production. Amid the straightforward concept of 39 increasingly vaginal place settings, each reserved for a different groundbreaking woman, Chicago and her team filled Jessica Silverman Gallery 488 Ellis Street, San Francisco, CA 94102 415.255.9508 jessicasilvermangallery.com the triangular structure with so many symbols and allusions that the reading of the work never stops. (Each side of the triangle, for instance, holds 13 place settings, which is the same number of seats at both The Last Supper and of witches in a coven.) While The Dinner Party is certainly the 78-year- old artist’s most well-known contribution to the volatile terrain of art history, it is by no means her only one.
