Click here to RSVP. \n\n\nArtTable\, in collaboration with the Winter Show\, invites guests to investigate the aesthetics of femininity throughout the ages in antiques\, fine and decorative arts. Touching on examples included in this year’s show\, we’ll be engaging dealers\, scholars\, writers and experts in a lively panel to explore expressions and appearances of femininity. How has the feminine been employed by makers and designers of the past? We’ll be breaking down cliches and contemplating how feminine aesthetics reflect periodical trends and power structures. This conversation will be moderated by Elissa Auther\, Deputy Director of Curatorial Affairs and the William and Mildred Lasdon Chief Curator at the Museum of Arts and Design. \n\nElissa Auther is the Deputy Director of Curatorial Affairs and William and Mildred Lasdon Chief Curator at the Museum of Arts and Design (MAD). Previously\, she was the Windgate Research Curator at MAD and Visiting Associate Professor at the Bard Graduate Center\, where her teaching focused on the intersection of craft and contemporary art. She has published widely on a diverse set of topics\, including the history of modernism and its relationship to craft and the decorative\, the material culture of the American counterculture\, and feminist art. Her monograph\, String\, Felt\, Thread: The Hierarchy of Art and Craft in American Art (University of Minnesota Press)\, focuses on the broad utilization of fiber in art of the 1960s and 1970s and the changing hierarchical relationship between art and craft expressed by the medium’s new visibility. Auther is also an accomplished curator. Her exhibitions include West of Center: Art and the Counterculture Experiment in America\, 1965–1977\, Pretty/Dirty\, the retrospective exhibition of the painter and photographer Marilyn Minter\, and Improvisational Gestures\, a survey exhibition of the sculptor and performance artist Senga Nengudi. Her most recent exhibitions for the Museum of Arts and Design include Surface/Depth: The Decorative After Miriam Schapiro and Vera Paints a Scarf: The Art and Design of Vera Neumann. A feminist public intellectual\, Auther founded and co-directed for ten years the program “Feminism & Co.: Art\, Sex\, Politics\,” which focused on issues of women and gender through the lens of creative practice.  \nPanelists:  \nMax Colby\, artist \nThrough lush\, detailed work in embroidery and textiles\, Max Colby reframes traditional notions of domesticity\, power\, and gender through a queer and non-binary lens.
