Judy Chicago: Mother Earth + Cohanim
September 7, 2020 - October 31, 2020
Free
Jessica Silverman is pleased to present two shows by Judy Chicago: “Mother Earth,” an exhibition of new and historic works expressive of the artist’s longstanding concern for the environment and climate justice; and “Cohanim,” a series of porcelain paintings, commemorating Leonard Cohen and his lyrics. Chicago will enjoy a retrospective survey at the De Young Museum in San Francisco in November 2021.
Chicago was an eco-feminist before the term was coined. Her desire for both ecological harmony and egalitarian societies has fueled her art from her 1960s “Atmospheres” to her recent portraits of endangered species. In her cosmic 1980s “Shadow” drawings, Chicago creates ombre shaded maps, which explore the complexity of love, power and interdependence in intimate relationships.
