Since the US left the country and Taliban forces reentered\, many aspects of daily life have come into question\, including how the country’s cultural heritage will be affected. Just two decades ago\, when the Taliban were last in power\, they called for the destruction of any and all pre-Islamic statues and sanctuaries on the land. While this new regime has promised to honor Afghanistan’s cultural heritage\, history makes us skeptical. \nOne woman who has spent many years living and traveling throughout Afghanistan\, overseeing the preservation of its archaeological sites\, artifacts\, monuments\, and museums\, is Laura Tedesco\, Cultural Heritage Program Manager at the U.S. Department of State. As a cultural heritage and preservation specialist\, Laura has experienced firsthand the challenges of preserving art and heritage amidst conflict\, an experience she shares with Anna Bottinelli\, President of the Monuments Men Foundation. Join us for a discussion about the preservation of cultural heritage in Afghanistan and beyond with these two leading experts! \nAdmission \n\nArtTable Circle members – Free\nAll other ArtTable members – $10\nNon-Members – $15\nMembers may bring a guest for an additional $15.\n\n \n  \nNot a member?

Register anyway to receive a recording after! \nAccessibility: Please note that this program will offer live closed captioning. If you require additional accommodations\, please email programs@arttable.org. \n\nAbout the speakers\n \nDr. Laura A. Tedesco serves as the Cultural Heritage Program Manager for the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of South and Central Asian Affairs. Laura’s work is centered on supporting U.S. Embassies across the region in identifying and guiding cultural preservation projects supported by the Department of State. In 2021 there are more than 30 active projects that preserve intangible and built heritage of more than 12 nations. Now based in Washington\, D.C. and Charleston\, S.C.\, she previously worked in Afghanistan at the U.S. Embassy from 2010-2012 developing and overseeing the State Department’s large-scale initiatives to support the preservation of Afghanistan’s imperiled cultural patrimony. Prior to joining the Department of State\, Laura worked at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City for 13 years. She has also worked in the private sector field of cultural resources management\, managing archaeological recovery of cultural resources for land development and corporate investment programs. Tedesco has participated in archaeological excavations in Syria\, Palestine\, the Republics of Armenia and Georgia\, Italy\, Cyprus\, and in several locations across the United States. She holds a PhD in Anthropology from New York University. Laura has a popular podcast that focuses on her personal story of the challenges she’s faced as a woman carrying out heritage preservation programs in Afghanistan. The title of the podcast is Monuments Woman. \nBorn and raised in Florence\, Italy\, Anna Bottinelli earned her B.A. in History of Art from John Cabot University (JCU) in Rome\, graduating Magna Cum Laude. There\, she was also the recipient of numerous accolades including the 2010 JCU Excellence in Art History Award and JCU Leadership Award. In 2011\, she received her M.A. in Art History at The Courtauld Institute of Art in London. She specialized in the Franciscan and Dominican Art of 13th century Italy. At the same time\, Ms. Bottinelli began work as the lead Italian research assistant to #1 New York Times Bestselling Author Robert Edsel on his project to write about the Monuments Men and their preservation work in Italy during World War II. Her work contributed greatly to the success of Mr. Edsel’s acclaimed bestseller\, “Saving Italy: The Race to Save a Nation’s Treasure from the Nazi.” \nIn 2014\, Ms. Bottinelli accepted a full time research position with the Monuments Men Foundation for the Preservation of Art\, in Dallas\, Texas. By 2017\, she had advanced to senior leadership positions and in December 2019\, she was appointed as the Foundation’s new President\, succeeding its founder\, Mr. Edsel . During her tenure at the Foundation\, Ms. Bottinelli has overseen numerous restitutions of cultural objects to individuals and museums in Europe. She has also served as a consultant for “Hunting Nazi Treasure\,” an eight-part investigative documentary that continues to air on Discovery’s American Heroes Channel\, History Channel-Canada\, and Canale Focus in Italy\, with additional future broadcasts planned internationally. \nToday Ms. Bottinelli is considered an expert on the subject of art looting and recovery during World War II. She regularly is a point of contact for provenance attorneys seeking expert opinions on art restitution cases involving Italy. Ms. Bottinelli has close ties with the art restitution unit of the Italian Carabinieri\, who have been steadfast supporters of the Monuments Men Foundation and its mission. Anna Bottinelli is currently based in Dallas with her husband and two little boys. She divides her time between the U.S. and Italy. \n\nImages: Laura Tedesco in Ghazni\, Afghanistan; Laurie Tedesco\, The Monuments Woman photographed for publication by Jackie Neale October\, 2021 in Charleston\, SC; Anna Bottinelli URL:https://www.arttable.org/event/virtual-preserving-cultural-heritage-in-afghanistan-and-beyond-anna-bottinelli-laura-tedesco/ LOCATION:Zoom CATEGORIES:National ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.arttable.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Tedesco-Ghazni-Afghanistan-photo.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="ArtTable National":MAILTO:programs@arttable.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20211211T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20211211T153000 DTSTAMP:20260403T132549 CREATED:20211130T170321Z LAST-MODIFIED:20211202T155938Z UID:7357-1639227600-1639236600@www.arttable.org SUMMARY:SoCal | Grinstein Family Art Collection Visit DESCRIPTION:1:00pm PT\nJoin us for a private tour of the Grinstein Family Art Collection.

She has also organized presentations & projects for the museum with artists including Demian DinéYazhi´ (2018)\, Chris E. Vargas & the Museum of Transgender Hirstory and Art (2016-17)\, & Michelle Handelman (2015)\, among others. Prior to the Henry\, Bozicnik held curatorial positions at the Currier Museum of Art\, Manchester\, New Hampshire; deCordova Sculpture Park & Museum\, Lincoln\, Massachusetts; and the Tufts University Art Gallery\, Medford\, Massachusetts. \nBarbara Earl Thomas earned her BA and MFA from the University of Washington. She has been the recipient of the Howard S. Wright Award\, Stranger Genius Award\, Mayor’s Arts Award\, and Hauberg Fellowship. Thomas has completed residencies at the Pilchuck School of Glass\, Stanwood; Museum of Glass\, Tacoma; and Goathead Press\, Tieton. She has held solo exhibitions at the Evansville Museum of Arts and Science; Seattle Art Museum; Bainbridge Island Art Museum; and Whatcom Museum of History and Art\, Bellingham. Thomas has participated in numerous group exhibitions\, including at the Bellevue Arts Museum; Northwest African American Museum\, Seattle; and Savannah College of Art and Design Museum of Art. Her work is included in the public collections of the Portland Art Museum\, Seattle Art Museum\, and Tacoma Art Museum. She is represented by the Claire Oliver Gallery in New York. \nAbout the exhibition\nPackaged Black brings together the work of artists Derrick Adams (b. 1970\, Baltimore\, MD) and Barbara Earl Thomas (b. 1948\, Seattle\, WA) in a collaborative\, multi-media installation developed from their shared dialogue about representation\, Black identity\, and practices of cultural resistance. This exhibition is a synthesis of a multi-year\, intergenerational\, and cross-country exchange between New York-based Adams and Seattle-based Thomas that began after the two artists exhibited work alongside each other in a group show at the Savannah College of Art and Design in 2017. For this exhibition\, Thomas draws upon the role of media and fairytales in shaping social expectations and her own conception of self. She is presenting all new work\, including an immersive installation conceived as a ‘transformation room’ and a series of new cut-paper portraits of friends and colleagues that riff on the concept of the royal court. \n  \nThank you to ArtTable’s Northwest Chapter Leaders Jessica Landau\, Judith Rinehart\, and Gina Broze for organizing this program.\n \n\nImage: Barbara Earl Thomas.

Complimentary wine and hors d’oeuvres will be served. \nThis program is open to ArtTable members and guests only.\n \nAdmission \n\nArtTable Members – $20\nMembers may bring a guest for an additional $15\n\nNot a member?

Getting There Cody Gallery of Marymount University is located inside Ballston Center at 1000 North Glebe Road\, 2nd Floor. Street parking and Capital Bikeshare are available. The gallery is located near the Metroline Orange: Ballston-MU. \n  \n\n  \n\nAbout the Artists\nMilan-based artists Sara Goldschmied (b.1975\, Arzignano) and Eleonora Chiari (b.1971\, Rome) have been working together as the artist-duo Goldschmied & Chiari since 2001. Sara and Eleonora met in the late 1990s through a shared interest in photography and feminism activism. Their shared interests soon led to joint art projects and a remarkable two-decade-long partnership. They have earned widespread respect and recognition\, both in Italy and internationally\, through their innovative use of photography\, video\, performance\, and installations. Much of their work draws conceptually from philosophy\, social studies\, and their historical Italian background. Their dynamic of working as a duo fundamentally impacts their approach to every project. They state that their most essential tool “…is our relationship as an artist duo because it feeds our art practice\, for example\, so that we see multiple sides of one issue.” Magnifica was organized by International Arts & Artists in partnership with the Embassy of Italy and the Italian Cultural Institute in Washington\, DC\, in collaboration with Marymount University. This project is supported by the Directorate-General for Contemporary Creativity by the Italian Ministry for Cultural Heritage and Activities and Tourism under the 2019 Italian Council Program. \nAbout the Exhibition\nThis exhibition is a collaboration by many ArtTable Members of the DC chapter\, all of whom will be in attendance. They are Allison Nance\, Curator; Caitlin Berry\, Cody Gallery Director; Maria Sancho-Arroyo\, Catalog Essayist; Ruth Abrahams\, Catalog Designer. Funds raised from this program will support the DC chapter locally\, including our intern\, who receives a stipend for her work coordinating chapter activities and communications. Your contribution makes a real impact on the growth and mentorship opportunities in our chapter\, thank you! \nIn Magnifica\, Goldschmied & Chiari bring together new work from their iconic Untitled Views series\, stylized with billowing pink and purple shades of smoke reminiscent of abstract blooms\, deconstructing the very notion of portraying an idea\, a face\, a sensation\, an architectural space. Three vase sculptures in pink blown Murano glass debut in this exhibition; the anthropomorphic shapes of these Magnifica vases are sensual and dangerous\, drawing inspiration from carnivorous pitcher plants in deep reds and purples\, and from lipstick kisses in bold pinks. The artists worked with craftsmen from the Italian island of Murano to create these vases\, a process which involved breathing and blowing\, thus\, a human mouth has created a mouth-like vase\, which conceptually blows the colored smoke integral to their Untitled Views. \n  \nThank you to Allison Nance and Caitlin Berry from ArtTable’s DC Chapter for organizing this program. \n\nImage: Left: Eleonora Chiari and Sara Goldschmied.

She formerly served as Associate Dean for the Division of Fine Arts\, Director of the Howard University Gallery of Art\, and Chairperson of the Department of Art. Everett received her Ph.D. from George Mason University\, Fairfax\, Virginia\, MA in Art History from Howard\, and a BA from Spelman College\, where she majored in Studio Art. She is currently co-organizing a symposium\, “Alma W. Thomas and David Driskell: Journeys in Art\,” with the Howard University Department of Art and the Phillips Collection to coincide with Alma Thomas and David Driskell exhibitions on view at the Phillips\, November 13\, 2021. \nArtTable member Renee Maurer is Associate Curator\, The Phillips Collection\, and coordinating curator for the Phillips’s presentation of the Alma W. Thomas: Everything is Beautiful exhibition. Other exhibitions she has coordinated include Riffs and Relations: African American Artists and the European Modernist Tradition\, guest curated by Adrienne Childs in 2020; A Modern Vision: European Paintings from The Phillips Collection and its tour (2017–2020); Toulouse-Lautrec Illustrates the Belle Époque (2017); Gauguin to Picasso: Masterworks from Switzerland (2016); American Moments: Photographs from The Phillips Collection (2015); Georges Braque and the Cubist Still Life: 1928–1945 (2013); and Jasper Johns: Variations on a Theme (2012). Prior to working at the Phillips\, she was a research assistant at the National Gallery of Art. She received her BA from Dickinson College and her MA from George Washington University. \nAbout the exhibition\nAlma W. Thomas: Everything Is Beautiful provides a fresh perspective on the artist’s dynamic long life (1891-1978) and multifaceted career that was defined by constant creativity. This major retrospective traces her journey from semi-rural Georgia to Washington\, DC\, to become the first Black woman given a solo show at the Whitney Museum of American Art at age 80. Through artworks and archival materials\, this exhibition demonstrates how Thomas’s wide-reaching artistic practices extended far beyond her studio. It helped shape every facet of her life—from community service to teaching to gardening. \nEverything Is Beautiful contextualizes Thomas’s art and life within her creative community\, delving into her association with Howard University\, American University\, and the Barnett Aden Gallery\, which she helped co-found. Some of her works are placed alongside examples by her friends and contemporaries\, such as Loïs Mailou Jones and Morris Louis\, who also helped shape the DC art scene. The exhibition offers an intimate look at this inspiring cultural icon who used her imagination and ingenuity to lead a rich and beautiful life. \nClick here to read more about the exhibition. \n  \nThank you to Renee Maurer\, Associate Curator\, and Erica Harper\, Educator\, The Phillips Collection.\n \n\nImages: \n\nAlma Thomas\, Pansies for Washington\, 1969\, acrylic on canvas\, National Gallery of Art\, Corcoran Collection (Gift of Vincent Melzac)\nDr. Gwendolyn Everett\nRenee Maurer\nIda Jervis\, Alma Thomas at Home\, 1968\, gelatin silver print.

The title of the exhibition is taken from a Brazilian proverb\, versions of which are found across cultures: Água mole em pedra dura\, tanto bate até que fura (Soft water on hard stone hits until it bores a hole). \nThe title speaks to ideas of resilience and perseverance\, and the impact that an insistent yet discrete gesture can have in time. It also provides a metaphor for resistance\, as water—a constantly flowing and transient material—is capable of eventually dissolving stone—a substance associated with permanence\, but also composed of tiny particles that can collapse under pressure. \nIn this moment of profound change\, where structures that were once thought to be stable are disintegrating or on the edge of collapse\, the 2021 Triennial recognizes artists re-envisioning traditional models\, materials\, and techniques beyond established paradigms. Their works exalt states of transformation\, calling attention to the malleability of structures\, porous and unstable surfaces\, and the fluid and adaptable potential of both technological and organic mediums. \nSoft Water Hard Stone is curated by Margot Norton\, Allen and Lola Goldring Curator at the New Museum\, and Jamillah James\, Senior Curator\, The Institute of Contemporary Art\, Los Angeles (ICA LA)\, with Jeanette Bisschops\, Curatorial Fellow\, and Bernardo Mosqueira\, ISLAA Curatorial Fellow. \n  \n\nThis program is $10 for ArtTable members.

She has lived in and visited many cities all over the world\, all of which have given her a diverse culinary perspective and palate. After graduating from the French Culinary Institute in New York\, Christa moved to Charlotte in 2003 to be closer to family. Although she was not immediately immersed in the culinary world of Charlotte\, she kept her love of cooking alive by catering on weekends and special events as well as hosting many themed parties and events over the years. This would launch the idea of the Artisan’s Palate. The inclusion of art as part of a whole experience was always her passion and she envisioned a space in which food\, drinks\, music and art co-existed in harmony – and that is how The Artisan’s Palate came to be. \nMelissa Herriott is a Charlotte-based abstract artist and interior stylist working in multiple mediums. Her paintings are full of color\, texture\, and symbolism. Melissa is an award-winning artist\, featured in QC Exclusive Magazine and the KNOW Book of Women. Melissa’s hope is that her work sparks conversation\, inspires\, and allows you (if even for a moment) to get lost inside of it. \n\nAbout The Artisan’s Palate\nThe Artisan’s Palate is a restaurant\, art gallery and gathering space in the NoDa neighborhood of Charlotte\, North Carolina. It offers a unique menu of craft cocktails\, wine and share plates in a neighborly\, relaxed atmosphere with a focus on art and those who create it. \nOver the years the NoDa community has seen most of its galleries close\, but The Artisan’s Palate is working to change that. The space includes a gallery that features local artists monthly. Guests are introduced to immersive experiences\, crafted by Chef and Owner\, Christa Csoka. These experiences converge all five senses through food\, beverage\, art\, music and more based on each collection. \nThe Artisan’s Palate is an inclusive destination for its customers – from local coffee during the day\, to rustic-yet-refined plates and curated cocktails at night\, to savory and sweet brunch on Sunday. They also sell wine\, coffee\, and art in support of local artisans all within a creative\, community environment. \n\nImages: \n\nInterior shot of The Artisan’s Palate gallery\, featuring work by Melissa Herriott\nHeadshots provided by the speakers\nInterior shot of The Artisan’s Palate\, courtesy of The Artisan’s Palate URL:https://www.arttable.org/event/virtual-an-arttable-friendsgiving-with-the-artisans-palate/ LOCATION:Zoom CATEGORIES:National ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.arttable.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Melissa-Herriott-in-Artisans-Palate-e1634569748313.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="ArtTable National":MAILTO:programs@arttable.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20211107T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20211107T120000 DTSTAMP:20260403T132549 CREATED:20210914T170655Z LAST-MODIFIED:20221005T191118Z UID:6779-1636282800-1636286400@www.arttable.org SUMMARY:Virtual | Self-Mythology and the Unreliable Narrator in the Life & Times of Sam Francis DESCRIPTION:11am PT/ 12pm MT / 1pm CT / 2pm ET\nPlease join Gabrielle Selz\, Jeremy Stone\, and Debra Burchett-Lere as they probe the self-mythologizing narratives of artists and personalities of the 20th Century. This talk will focus on discoveries Selz made in her new book\, Light on Fire\, the first comprehensive biography of Sam Francis.\n\nLight on Fire traces the extraordinary and ultimately tragic journey of a complex and charismatic artist who first learned to paint while encased for three years in a full-body plaster cast. Francis portrayed himself as a pilot who heroically crashed his plane in the Arizona desert; a story Selz reveals is a fabrication that was repeated by all the male historians who wrote about his illustrious career. For indeed\, Francis’s color-saturated paintings went on to fetch the highest prices of any living artist. His restless desire resulted in five marriages and homes on three continents. His entrepreneurial spirit led to the founding of MoCA\, Lapis Press\, a reforestation program\, and several nonprofits. Light on Fire captures the art\, life\, personality\, and talent of a man who sought to resolve in art\, the contradictions he couldn’t resolve in life.\n\nAdmission\n\n ArtTable Circle Members– Free\n All other ArtTable Members – $5\n Non-Members – $7\n\nNot an ArtTable member? Join today!\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\nAccessibility: Please email programs@arttable.org if you require specific accommodations. \n\n\n\nAbout the Speakers\nDebra Burchett-Lere brings a range of professional international art-world experiences as an author\, curator\, and executive director of the artist-endowed Sam Francis Foundation\, California.

Judy has produced numerous murals in Los Angeles and elsewhere since the early 1970’s\, and is particularly renown for The Great Wall of Los Angeles (also known as The History of California). \n“I want to produce artwork that is beautiful and inspirational\, and beyond decorative.  I excavate public spaces to hear public voice\, and to create public consciousness about the presence of people who are often the majority of the population but are not represented in a visual way. By telling their stories I hope to give voice to those least heard and to visualize a more whole American story. I call this creating sites of public memory.” – Judy Baca \nThis program will highlight Baca’s artistic practice as a tool for both people and place. She will present several of her murals which dramatically document both told and untold American stories of the disenfranchised. Baca will also share her wisdom\, personal perspective\, and vast experience on how to effectively reimagine memorials and memory. Cathie Behrend\, ArtTable New York member who co-organized this series\, will introduce the program and speaker. There will be ample time for questions so come prepared with your inquiry about Memorials and Memory. \n  \n           \n \n  \nAdmission \n\nArtTable Circle Members– Free\nAll other ArtTable Members – $10\nNon-Members – $15\nMembers may bring an additional guest for $5\n\nNot an ArtTable member? Join today! \nCan’t make the program at this time?

If you require additional accommodations\, please email programs@arttable.org. \n\nAbout Judy Baca\nOne of America’s leading visual artists\, Dr. Judith F. Baca\, grew up in Los Angeles and has been creating public art for more than four decades. In 1974\, Baca founded the City of Los Angeles’ first mural program which produced over 400 murals and employed thousands of local participants\, evolving into an arts organization known as the Social and Public Art Resource Center (SPARC). \nDr. Baca\, now Professor Emeritus\, was a University of California senior professor of Studio Art  (1980-96)\, founded UC’s Cesar Chavez Center for Interdisciplinary Studies in 1993\, and has long been a professor in UC’s Chicano/a Studies and World Cultures Department in UCLA’s School of Art and Architecture.  She continues to serve as SPARC’s artistic director\, and within the UCLA@SPARC Digital/Mural Lab\, now uses digital technology as she co-creates murals promoting social justice and participatory public art projects. Her honors include a 2003 Guggenheim Fellowship\, a 2015  Rockefeller Fellowship and over 50 awards from various community groups. Judy Baca’s artwork is included in the collections of The Smithsonian American Art Museum\, Hartford’s Wadsworth Atheneum\, New York’s Museum of Modern Art\, among others. The Lucas Museum of Narrative Art in L.A. has recently acquired The History of California archive; and currently\, the Museum of Latin American Art in Long Beach\, CA presents a major retrospective of Judy Baca’s practice. \nHer most well-known work\, ‘The Great Wall of Los Angeles\,’ created between 1976-1983\, runs for one-half mile in the Tujunga Wash\, a flood control channel of the Los Angeles River\, featuring images of California’s pre-history into the 1950’s. In 2017 it was named to the National Register of Historic Places. In 2021\, Baca and SPARC received a $5 million Andrew Mellon Foundation grant to extend The Great Wall’s imagery for another half mile to include narratives up to the present and develop further interpretive material. \n  \nThank you to Cathie Behrend\, former Deputy Director of New York’s Percent for Art Program and founder of VenturesinVision\, and Lori Shepard\, ArtTable member (New York Chapter)\, for organizing this program series. \n\nImages: \n\nPortrait of Judy Baca at the 2004 partial restoration of the Great Wall of Los Angeles.

Her first tiny gallery in NYC was located on East 72nd Street\, exhibiting Modern and Contemporary art. After working with increasingly large pieces and publishing editions\, she moved to a space on 25th Street in Chelsea. \nIn 2011 she made the personal and professional move to Washington\, DC to share an exhibition space with her husband\, gallery owner Robert Brown. \nNeptune Fine Art has collaborated with established artists including Jennifer Bartlett\, Vija Celmins\, Wolf Kahn\, James Siena\, Adam Pendleton\, Mickalene Thomas\, and Jenny Holzer as well as many artists in the District of Columbia/Maryland\, Virginia region.

In addition to BAMPFA\, she has held positions at the Contemporary Jewish Museum\, ArtSpan\, San Francisco Museum of Modern Art\, and Intersection for the Arts. A Bay Area resident since 2011\, she took a two year hiatus to attend grad school in Chicago\, where she received her MA in Modern and Contemporary Art History\, Theory\, and Criticism at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2017. Her graduate studies focused on the intersection of identity and historiography and the way in which artists’ communities are documented\, particularly in relation to second wave feminism and conceptual art. She is the founder and curator of the apartment galleries COLLABO in Chicago\, and Claire Frost in San Francisco. \nFormer PR Director at SFMOMA and Executive Director of the San Jose ICA\, art writer and independent curator Marcia Tanner has organized three exhibitions of contemporary feminist art: Bad Girls West\, 1994\, the Wight Art Gallery\, UCLA; Brides of Frankenstein\, 2005\, San Jose Museum of Art; and We Interrupt Your Program\, 2008\, Mills College Art Museum. She has been an ArtTable Member since 1987.] Her Berkeleyside review of New Time can be found here.\nAbout the exhibition\nNew Time: Art and Feminisms in the 21st Century is a major survey exploring recent feminist practices in contemporary art. In 1980 Lucy Lippard argued that feminist art is “neither a style nor a movement” but rather “a value system\, a revolutionary strategy\, a way of life.” Taking Lippard’s statement as a point of departure\, the exhibition examines the values\, strategies\, and ways of life reflected in current feminist art. In keeping with Griselda Pollock’s observation that “feminism is a historical project and thus is itself constantly shaped and remodelled in relation to the living process of women’s struggles\,” New Time aims to demonstrate that feminism in the twenty-first century is multifaceted\, encompassing many complex issues and perspectives\, and therefore cannot be reduced to a single subject\, style\, or agenda. Although artworks made since 2000 are the primary focus\, the objects and installations on view span several generations\, mediums\, geographies\, and political sensibilities. In this way the project seeks to convey the heterogeneous\, intergenerational\, and gender-fluid nature of feminist practices today.
