Judy Chicago

"Judy Chicago's installations, such as The Dinner Party, the Birth Project, and the Holocaust Project, have transformed perceptions of women's art and collaborative ventures, while her employment of an enormous variety of techniques, from drawing and printmaking to needlework and pyrotechnics, has cemented her reputation as a true innovator.". "Chicago's search for a personal means of expression has been contemporaneous with the growth of feminist consciousness, and the story of her development as a woman artist and a feminist is a vivid journey through contemporary American culture and society."--BOOK JACKET.
