4/13/15 review of Institutional Time, by Judy Chicago

(Image source: https://www.monacellipress.com/book/?isbn=9781580933667)

Here is the link to my Twitter thread review of the book Institutional Time: A Critique of Studio Art Education, by Judy Chicago.

My Twitter thread review discusses the history and context of the book. It also discusses the structure of the book. It delves into the actual challenges and successes Chicago has faced while teaching at universities. I also discuss some interesting aims and ideas Chicago conveys in the book, as well as some authors she mentions.

I also discuss my own ideas about widening the audience for art. This probably influenced me more than I considered back then, as this really was a defining moment in my life, when I became a lot more involved with the art scene in Denver.

Here is the link to the Monacelli Press edition of Institutional Time.

I bought this book while at RedLine Denver, during a retrospective they had of Judy Chicago's work.

12/13/14 review of Judy Chicago retrospective at RedLine Denver


Here is the link to my Twitter thread of the RedLine Contemporary Art Center retrospective Surveying Judy Chicago: 1970-2014.

Judy Chicago is one of my favorite living artists, and RedLine did a great job of bringing together some of her most beautiful work. My thread shows a lot of pictures from the show and gives a bit of description.
