ART FEMINISM CONTEXTUAL STUDIES

ART FEMINISM: contextual studies.

Judy Chicago, born 20th July 1939,  is an American feminist artist who is known for her art pieces that examine the role of women in history and culture. Her aim was to teach women the skills needed to express the female perspective in their work and to help develop feminist art. Chicago taught her first female art class in 1970 at the frenzo state college. Chicago is mostly known for her art piece, " The dinner party" which is widely regarded as the first epic feminist art work and is used to show symbolic history of women. There are 39 place settings used to represent 39 historical famous women, along a triangular table.

I really like what Chicago stood for, as it shows that women are just as capable of doing things as men are, and aren't just stereotypical females who'd stay home and do house jobs.
