“Omelettes” (Yolanda Dominguez, 2008) represent the feminine education through children’s toys. These items represent implicit attitudes and attributes that will lead to the future roles of womanhood.
Judy Chicago
The Dinner Party
The kids in my art matters/elements class are well aware of this piece. I felt this was so appropriate to post on Thanksgiving haha.
Judy Chicago (b.July 20,1939) is an artist, author, feminist, educator, and intellectual whose career now spans over five decades. Her influence both within and beyond the art community is attested to by her inclusion in hundreds of publications throughout the world. Her art has been frequently exhibited in the United States as well as in Canada, Europe, Asia, Australia, and New Zealand. In addition, a number of the books she has authored have been published in foreign editions, bringing her art and philosophy to thousands of readers worldwide.
Although Chicago has been an influential teacher and prolific author, the primary focus of her career has been her studio work. For over five decades, Chicago has remained steadfast in her commitment to the power of art as a vehicle for intellectual transformation and social change and to women’s right to engage in the highest level of art production. As a result, she has become a symbol for people everywhere, known and respected as an artist, writer, teacher, and humanist whose work and life are models for an enlarged definition of art, an expanded role for the artist, and women’s right to freedom of expression.
Happy Thanksgiving!

“In medieval Jewish lore, Lilith was Adam’s first wife. When she demanded to be Adam’s equal, she was evicted from the Garden of Eden. Lilith flew away to the demon world, replaced by the more submissive Eve. [Artist Kiki] Smith catches us off guard with Lilith’s pose and placement. Most sculptures receive our gaze passively, but Lilith stares back with piercing eyes, ready to pounce.”Museum of Fine Art, Boston](http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxnmruR2GB1r91u5yo1_500.jpg)
