Judy Chicago - ‘I’m an Artist and a Troublemaker' | TateShots
Judy Chicago is an artist and author. To tie in with the 50th anniversary of the Beatles album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, Chicago has created a mural on the walls of the Grail Silo in Liverpool which responds to the lyrics of the song Fixing a Hole. The work is the artist’s largest painting to date.
After studying painting and sculpture in the 1970s at the University of California, Los Angeles, Chicago was the first artist to launch a feminist art programme. Her goal has been to create a place for female-centred imagery and to overcome the erasure of women’s achievements in art and society.
Chicago’s most influential work is the iconic installation The Dinner Party (1974-9), which today is a permanent exhibition at the Elizabeth A. Sackler Center for Feminist Art at the Brooklyn Museum.

These Tate Shots give me life
I was lost in the art education world too at that time till I read her book and saw 'the dinner party'. She spoke the words for me. I have my own artist language because of her. ♥♥
Saw The Dinner Party in person. Incredibly beautiful.
I love her so much!!! a true hero
Thank you, Judy!
Our Judy, a troublemaker. I don't believe a word of it!. Saw her exhibition The Dinner Party at the Glenbow in Calgary many moons ago. It was tremendous. Best of luck Judes.
She is so wonderful! Go Judy!!
She is my favourite artist all time. Such an inspiration
Thank you Judy you have made such a great contribution not only to women but for our social structures as well as we oh so slowly wend our way through to the 21st century. Much love!

Debra you sound so sweet nice point
Inspirational story about her feminist parents in the forties and how it influenced her way of thinking at such an early age.
She's an icon. Thank you, Judy.
Thank you. Very much!
I enjoyed hearing your story Ms. Chicago.
Always loved your sense of color Judy!! XOXO
REwind to 1971-72, Cal Arts first campus, the Villa Cabrini in Burbank, Judy was head of the woman's art aspect of the school and she and Johanna Demetrakas created WOMANHOUSE in Burbank. It was an entire house with each room the expression of being WOMAN. There was a documentary film made of it.
When I careened into radical feminism in the 80s I had missed the 2nd wave but their books were still in the library. My artist soul found wings because of Judy's work as well as other feminist artists. I am so thankful for their inspiration and encouragement.
thank you

I loveeee herr
Judy is the best .Regards Jacek Pokrak

Judy artiest is amazing and needs to be studied. The art has alot to say and to attempt to follow when it comes to the becoming a artiest.
I have had smear campaigns against me, so I know some of what you mean. Words can be hurtful, especially if a large number of people do believe the lies coming from people who want to create great harm on you. I know this feeling.... I am an older woman now. Always wanted to be an artist... Spent most all of my life taking care of others. Now, older, very late fifties, and almost penniless, I want to be the artists I always wanted to be. ☺️ Huh! (I'm feeling a bit "Yeah, right, -good luck with that!"😬Yicks!!!

You certainly can do it, no matter your age. Challenge your beliefs, challenge what you know, challenge what you have been taught is possible.
Enlightening and sad. Sad in that this inequality still exists today in other ways, 48 years after WomanHouse. Sad because it shows how poorly men of my age, 63, grasped the depth of the problem then and now.
Her entire life and career have been one prolonged game of "Let's Piss Off the Grownups". That's it.
"I eat children!" is what the thumbnail said to me.
is this miley cyrus
It never lasted long
Cute but not Marxist :))
the worst most famous artist in America.
What's wrong with her face and hair?

Your opinion of them.
You are not an artist, just a bad taste joke.
