While living in Fresno, California, during the early 1970s,\u00a0Judy Chicago<\/a>\u00a0undertook a research project focused on female artists throughout the ages. These days, such an initiative hardly seems revolutionary\u2014many books have since been published about pioneers by historians like Linda Nochlin, Griselda Pollock, Mary Garrard, and more. But at the time, art history as it existed in the U.S. was almost exclusively focused on the achievement of white males based in Europe and New York. Chicago sought to change that.<\/p>\n

She learned that nuns aided in illuminating manuscripts alongside monks, and that women like Anna Claypoole and Sarah Peale were painting in the U.S. during the 19th century. She came upon the work of artists like Artemisia Gentileschi<\/a>, the Baroque painter whose work has more recently acted as a symbol of the #MeToo movement, and Angelica Kaufmann, who during her day was among the most famous Neoclassical artists. She saw how paintings by Judith Leyster and Rosalba Carreira could offer visions of women by women, and how Impressionists like Mary Cassatt and Berthe Morisot were forced to live in the shadow of their male colleagues. (Most of the women Chicago surveyed were white and European. Chicago has said her limited focus was due in part to the purview of the literature she relied upon.)<\/p>\n

\u201cMany of these artists struggled with obstacles similar to those I had encountered: negative attitudes toward women; not being taken seriously; and, most grievous, being deprived of the opportunities and rewards that allow one\u2019s career to flourish,\u201d Chicago writes in\u00a0The Flowering: The Autobiography of Judy Chicago<\/a><\/em>, which was published earlier this year by Thames & Hudson. \u201cEven in the face of innumerable impediments, including a lack of formal art training, they had carved out lives for themselves in a world where only male artists had the support of the culture.\u201d<\/p>\n

Since Chicago began her research project, many of the women she explored have been given proper museum surveys and biographies of their own. Now, Chicago has been inscribed in the lineage of which Gentileschi, Carreira, Morisot, and others are a part. This Saturday, the de Young Museum in San Francisco will open Chicago\u2019s first-ever retrospective, cementing her place in history as one of the most important feminist artists ever. Though that show doesn\u2019t include her most famous project,\u00a0The Dinner Party<\/em><\/a>\u00a0(1974\u201379), it will feature a breadth of work that spans the full of her career, from early paintings done on car hoods to her latest series focused on death and ecological destruction. Below, a look at Chicago\u2019s expansive oeuvre.<\/p>\n

Early Feminist Experiments<\/strong><\/p>\n

People now know Judy Chicago\u2019s name far and wide\u2014but in fact, it wasn\u2019t the moniker she was given when she was born to two Jewish liberals in Illinois\u2019s largest city in 1939. Early on, the young Judy Cohen demonstrated a natural aptitude for art and was exposed to leftist politics, thanks to her father, who was a registered Communist. It wasn\u2019t until the \u201960s, after she had studied art at the University of California<\/a>, Los Angeles and after her first husband had died, that she took on a new last name.<\/p>\n

In 1966, she christened herself Judy Chicago on the advice of her dealer Rolf Nelson, who admired her Illinoisian accent. For a show at California State University, Fullerton, she exhibited a sculpture, along with a text offering insight into the name change: \u201cJudy Gerowitz<\/em><\/a>\u00a0hereby divests herself of all names imposed upon her through male social dominance and freely chooses her own name:\u00a0Judy Chicago<\/em>.\u201d The sculpture she showed was a set of semi-translucent acrylic half-spheres set atop a table-like structure. Smooth and sleek, it was of a piece with the Finish Fetish aesthetic that was pervasive in California at the time. It looked a lot like Minimalist sculpture\u2014with key differences: it was a lot less imposing, and a lot more colorful.<\/p>\n

The Minimalist sculptors gaining name recognition at the time were largely white men based in New York making giant art out of industrial materials and mathematical systems. Chicago, who exhibited alongside them in Kynaston McShine<\/a>\u2019s famed 1966 show \u201cPrimary Structures\u201d at the Jewish Museum in New York, took issue with this, and sought to find a way to create art that would be reflective of her own experience. One method was to generate a form of abstraction that referred directly to vaginas, vulvas, and breasts\u2014a project she had begun in grad school with works painted on car hoods that collapsed male and female sex organs. (She would later return to making these abstractions throughout her career, producing them until 2004.) They were panned by her male colleagues and professors who saw them. Another was to make her repetitive forms colorful and quite unlike the steely creations being put out by the Minimalists.<\/p>\n

But Chicago found herself frustrated with the abstract language she had engineered, since it couldn\u2019t fully communicate her struggle as a woman. And so she ventured in a new direction.<\/p>\n

The Life of the Party<\/strong><\/p>\n

During the \u201970s, alongside many women across the U.S., Chicago joined the fight for women\u2019s liberation. In response, her work began to tackle feminist themes more directly. Her practice also began expanding beyond gallery walls. For one series of performances,\u00a0titled \u201cAtmospheres,\u201d she sprayed plumes of smoke amid arid landscapes, in an attempt to \u201cfeminize<\/a>\u201d her surroundings. (More recently, these works have been criticized for their ecological impact\u2014a San Diego venue pulled out of hosting one in 2021 as part of the Desert X biennial, claiming that the smoke sculpture would hurt flora and fauna nearby.) Yet there were also projects from this era that looked nothing like art at all.<\/p>\n

In 1970, Chicago started the Feminist Art Project at what is now the California State University, Fresno. Intended as a space for women, who were often marginalized at top art schools across the country, the Feminist Art Project was a part of Chicago\u2019s consciousness-raising efforts, and was later redeveloped with artist Miriam Schapiro as the Feminist Art Program at CalArts.\u00a0<\/strong>In 1973, Chicago would leave CalArts to cofound, with Arlene Raven and Sheila Levrant de Bretteville, the influential Woman\u2019s Building in L.A., where they hosted the Feminist Studio Workshop.<\/p>\n

Chicago also made a space for women artists to make art, with\u00a0Womanhouse<\/em>, a 1972 project in which a Chicago, Schapiro, and other women artists, including their students, inhabited a Los Angeles house to create a collaborative Gesamtkunstwerk that included performances and installations there, drawing hundreds of visitors. Chicago\u2019s contribution was\u00a0Menstrual Bathroom<\/em>, for which she lined a lavatory with feminine hygiene products that appeared to be used.<\/p>\n

Many consider Chicago\u2019s greatest work to be\u00a0The Dinner Party<\/em><\/a>\u00a0(1974\u201379), an epic installation resembling a triangular table with place settings honoring women from throughout history, from Egyptian pharaoh Hatshepsut to American artist Georgia O\u2019Keeffe. At each of the 39 settings was a plate depicting the sitter\u2019s vagina, often with allusions to their artistic style or character. Beneath the table are tiles with the names of around 1,000 other women. The project was an example of the way Chicago began to merge \u201chigh\u201d art with \u201clow\u201d craft techniques, such as a ceramics and embroidery, which had been historically been considered lesser\u00a0than painting and sculpture because of their historical associations as so-called women\u2019s work.<\/p>\n

After premiering at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, the installation toured the nation. Lucy Lippard called it \u201cone of the most ambitious works of art made in the postwar period\u201d in\u00a0Art in America<\/em>, although her critical admiration for the piece was rare at the time. The piece now resides at the Brooklyn Museum in New York, though this wasn\u2019t meant to be the piece\u2019s home\u2014Chicago planned on giving it to the University of the District of Columbia, then rescinded the offer after Republicans in the House of Representatives called it \u201cobscene<\/a>\u201d and withdrew funding for the school in 1990.<\/p>\n

The Dinner Party<\/em>\u00a0marked one attempt to tell \u201c\u2018herstory\u2019 through techniques that were considered \u2018womanly,\u2019\u201d as Chicago recalls in\u00a0The Flowering<\/em>, and it was met with big crowds and national media coverage. But not everyone sang its praises. Some accused Chicago of exploiting the workers she enlisted to produce the project\u2014a charge she vehemently denies in her autobiography. Others claimed that Chicago\u2019s dinner party had an exclusive invite list\u2014few women of color made the cut. In 2018, Chicago explained this absence by telling the\u00a0New York Review of Books<\/em>\u00a0that there was \u201clittle or no knowledge about any of these women\u201d of color when she began working on\u00a0The Dinner Party<\/em>. When women of color do appear, they are often not placed on equal footing to their predominantly white company. Alice Walker famously focused on Sojourner Truth\u2019s plate, which was one of the few that featured not a vagina but three faces. \u201cIt occurred to me that perhaps white women feminists, no less than white women generally, cannot imagine that black women have vaginas,\u201d Walker wrote.<\/p>\n

Born Anew<\/strong><\/p>\n

Since\u00a0The Dinner Party<\/em>, Chicago has worked predominantly in a figurative mode. After such a grand installation, Chicago\u2019s next series was something more intimate: \u201cThe Birth Project,\u201d which sought to right an art-historical wrong by offering depictions of mothers\u00a0during labor that had rarely been seen throughout art history. Chicago attributed this absence to the patriarchy, saying, \u201cIf men had babies, there would be thousands of images of the crowning.\u201d The resulting pieces, done via needlepoint and needlework, abstractly show children emerging from vaginas, with women\u2019s bodies appearing to split open and emit rays of light in the process. At times, these images seem violent, even disturbing; at others, they are beautiful.<\/p>\n

After this came \u201cPowerPlay<\/a>\u201d (1982\u201387), a series of paintings in which a muscular male figure\u2019s body appears to undergo various transformations\u2014shedding his skin in one memorable work, and peeing all over a mountainous landscape in another. She continued her exploration of power and domination with \u201cHolocaust Project: From Darkness into Light\u201d (1985\u20131993), which sought to understand the roots of a genocide that resulted in the killings of more than 6 million Jews and an estimated 5 million from other marginalized groups. Interwoven in it were meditations on colonial conquests in the U.S.<\/p>\n

In recent years, Chicago has found widespread success. She now has representation with two galleries, Salon 94 and Jessica Silverman, and has said that her work\u2019s appearance in a Getty Museum show about the postwar L.A. art scene, held as first of the Pacific Standard Time initiative, in 2011, helped cement her reputation.\u00a0She has since designed the runway for a Dior show and appeared on the \u201cTIME<\/em>\u00a0100<\/a>\u201d list.<\/p>\n

All the while, Chicago has continued making her politically engaged her art, directing much of her focus toward environmentalist concerns over the three decades. Building off concerns explored in bodies of work such as the needlework series \u201cResolutions: A Stitch in Time\u201d (1994\u20132000), Chicago\u2019s most recent series, \u201cThe End: A Meditation on Death and Extinction\u201d (2015\u201319), is just as much a project about the horrors wrought by humanity on the natural world as it is on her own mortality. In these paintings done on black glass, sinewy humans are shown on their deathbeds, and animals are depicting crying out on pain. Amid the carnage, Chicago periodically sounds a hopeful note. In\u00a0Stranded<\/em>\u00a0(2016), she shows a polar bear atop a shrinking icecap. Beneath it is a text quoting the environmentalist Derrick Jensen: \u201cEvery creature on the planet must be hoping that\u2026 our time of awakening comes soon.\u201d<\/p>\n
