Spring Links















This Spring two important feminist art events are taking place in the U.S.–-an exhibition on the history of feminist art at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles and the opening of a permanent exhibition space for feminist art at the Brooklyn Museum of Art. Important, because feminism has never before been addressed by a major American art institution (of course the critics and historians who care are outraged at this late acknowledgement, and me, too).
Here’s an excellent review of the L.A. show from the New York Times (you have to log into the site, but it's free). No art speak, just plain language explaining what’s good, what’s not, and why you should care. The show is up through July, so if you’re in L.A., don’t miss it.
Here’s another site not to miss this week: Post Secret. Go there, you won’t regret it.
