Abstract

Within the politically charged debates of the feminist art movement, Judy Chicago's Dinner Party has been a focal point of controversy. A monumental table in the form of an equilateral triangle, The Dinner Party honors 1,038 women in Western history, 39 of whom are represented at the table itself by elaborate needlework runners and ceramic plates with centralized, often vulvar, motifs. When the piece was first shown, at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art in 1979, it drew the largest audience in that museum's history. Although it was praised by many feminists, it also engendered vehemently negative responses, from mainstream art critics and feminist commentators alike.


The essays in this volume, which is published in conjunction with an exhibition organized by UCLA at the Armand Hammer Museum of Art and Cultural Center, provide a major reevaluation of The Dinner Party and the debates that it has prompted, placing it within the broader context of art history and theory. Presenting works dating from the early 1960s to the present by other feminist artists, the book explores important issues raised in feminist art history and practice over the last thirty-five years. The works included make clear that The Dinner Party was produced within, and takes its meanings from, a historical matrix in which explorations of female sexuality, ideals of beauty, domesticity, violence against women, the questioning of male authority, the diversity of female experience, and other concerns have served as means of addressing issues of identity, oppression, and personal and social power.


Through its examination of the reception of The Dinner Party, both in the United States and abroad, Sexual Politics also traces the development of feminist art theory.

The Dinner Party, gecreëerd tussen 1974 en 1979, door Judy Chicago kan worden beschouwd als een 'ikoon' van de amerikaanse vrouwenbeweging van de jaren '70. Het blijft één van de meest ambitieuse, controversiéle en zichtbare uitingen van de spirit en stuwende krachten die de vrouwenbeweging in de vroege jaren '70 bezielde en inspireerde. Dit boek geeft als tentoonstellingscatalogus uiteraard een overzicht van de ten toon gestelde werken en bevat tevens een aantal essays van de hand van: Amelia Jones, Laura Meyer, Nancy Ring, Anette Kubitza, Susan Kandel en Laura Cottingham. Het werk wordt afgesloten met een uitgebreide index.

Abstract

In this groundbreaking volume, contemporary art historians--all of them women--probe the dilemmas and complexities of writing about the woman artist, past and present. Singular Women proposes a new feminist investigation of the history of art by considering how a historian's theoretical approach affects the way in which research progresses and stories are told.

Abstract

Der Band befragt die Videokunst der frühen 1970er Jahre hinsichtlich ihrer Interventionen in Körper- und Mediendiskurse bzw. Subjektdiskurse der Zeit. Im Anschluss an Walter Benjamin entwickelt die Studie hierfür ein operatives Bildverständnis und arbeitet »den wachen Sinn für die Signatur der Zeit« aus den Praktiken und Diskursen der Videokunst heraus. Analysen zu Videowerken von Eleanor Antin, Lynda Benglis, Lili Dujourie, Sanja Ivecoviç, Martha Rosler, Lisa Steele, Hannah Wilke und anderen Künstlern und Künstlerinnen belegen einen repräsentationskritischen Einsatz des Mediums, der die Arbeit an, mit und in Bildern als eine ebenso ästhetische wie politische Argumentation lesbar macht.

Abstract

Dorothea Olkowski's exploration of the philosophy of Gilles Deleuze clarifies the gifted French thinker's writings for specialists and nonspecialists alike. Deleuze, she says, accomplished the "ruin of representation," the complete overthrow of hierarchic, organic thought in philosophy, politics, aesthetics, and ethics, as well as in society at large. In Deleuze's philosophy of difference, she discovers the source of a new ontology of change, which in turn opens up the creation of new modes of life and thought, not only in philosophy and feminism but wherever creation is at stake.The work of contemporary artist Mary Kelly has been central to Olkowski's thinking. In Kelly she finds an artist at work whose creative acts are in themselves the ruin of representation as a whole, and the text is illustrated with Kelly's art. This original and provocative account of Deleuze contributes significantly to a critical feminist politics and philosophy, as well as to an understanding of feminist art.

Abstract

‘Feminisms’ (as a plural) is widely used today to draw attention to inequalities and to critique the status quo in limiting women’s roles/ positions/ lives/ potential. Art can offer a vision of future worlds, manifesting a desire for projecting change, playing with existing realities and conventions. Feminist Art Artivism and Activism, two sides of the same coin, arise where art approaches, develops or transforms into activism and vice versa, where activisms become artivisms. In both, art emerges in differing forms of political intervention, at both an individual, shared or collective level, apparent in actions, events, identifications and practices. This volume wants to reveal the diversity of these practices and realities. Representing a range of critical insights, perspectives and practices from artists, activists, curators, academics and writers, it explores and reflects on the enormous variety of feminist interventions in the field of contemporary art, social processes, the public sphere and politics. In doing so, Feminist Art Activisms and Artivisms touches upon broader questions of cultural difference, history, class, economic position, ecology, politics, sexual orientation, and the ways in which these intersect. « Féminismes » (au pluriel) est largement utilisé aujourd'hui pour attirer l'attention sur les inégalités et pour critiquer le statu quo en limitant les rôles/positions/vies/potentiels des femmes. L'art peut offrir une vision des mondes futurs, manifestant un désir de projeter le changement, jouant avec les réalités et les conventions existantes. Art féministe L'artivisme et l'activisme, les deux faces d'une même pièce, apparaissent là où l'art se rapproche, se développe ou se transforme en activisme et vice versa, où les activismes deviennent des artivismes. Dans les deux cas, l'art émerge sous différentes formes d'intervention politique, à la fois au niveau individuel, partagé ou collectif, se manifestant dans des actions, des événements, des identifications et des pratiques. Ce volume veut révéler la diversité de ces pratiques et réalités. Représentant une gamme d'idées critiques, de perspectives et de pratiques d'artistes, d'activistes, de conservateurs, d'universitaires et d'écrivains, il explore et réfléchit sur l'énorme variété d'interventions féministes dans le domaine de l'art contemporain, des processus sociaux, de la sphère publique et de la politique. Ce faisant, Feminist Art Activisms and Artivisms aborde des questions plus larges de différence culturelle, d'histoire, de classe, de position économique, d'écologie, de politique, d'orientation sexuelle et de la manière dont elles se recoupent.
