Description:
Making It Together: Women’s Collaborative Art + Community, the exhibition guest-curated by Carey Lovelace for the Bronx Museum, surveys the period in the 1970s and early 80s when women artists, inspired by the 70s feminist movement, worked collectively in new ways to engage communities and address social issues. Taking the exhibition as a point of departure, this discussion (the first of two held in conjunction with the show) will trace the influence of gender-based critique in shaping artists’ collective and collaborative practices over the past 30+ years. Participants in the discussion represent a range of currently active groups whose work reflects this influence.
