About the Item

Judy Chicago In Praise of Prairie Dogs (19-325), 2019 11 Color Lithograph on light blue Pescia paper Hand signed, dated and numbered from the limited edition of 95 on the front 22 × 18 inches Edition of 95 Published by Tamarind Institute Provenance: Acquired directly from the publisher Unframed Judy Chicago's 2019 edition pays tribute to the North American prairie dog, which is experiencing a sharp population decline and currently listed as an endangered species. During the summer of 2019, feminist icon, artist, writer, and educator Judy Chicago was in the workshop collaborating with Master Printer Valpuri Remling on a special edition for Tamarind. The eleven-color lithograph she created brings attention to impending species extinction, and continues her extensive work in printmaking. Chicago has spent her career bringing visibility to subjects that are not widely represented in the history of art. Internationally known for The Dinner Party, an epic installation comprised of a banquet of ceramic table settings honoring influential women in Western civilization, Chicago has worked tirelessly to highlight the social and cultural contributions of women. Now 80 years old, sporting brilliant purple hair and enjoying broad critical recognition and major museum exhibitions, Chicago has achieved a new level of art celebrity status. She is utilizing this hard-earned platform to focus attention around species extinction. Chicago renders a pair of prairie dogs as they actually greet each other, in a kind of toothy kiss. Her finely drawn creatures float against a luminous green ground, achieved through three blend rolls and six runs through the press. In Praise of Prairie Dogs prompts us to consider the species’ important role in maintaining grassland habitats and biodiversity.

  • Sunset Moon Bird
    Located in New York, NY
    Ann Craven Sunset Moon Bird, 2023 18 color screen print on Somerset Velvet warm white 400gsm paper Pencil signed, titled, dated and numbered 58/100 by Anne Craven on the front 29 9/10 × 23 3/5 inches Unframed Pencil signed, titled, dated and numbered 59/100 by Anne Craven on the front. This print was created to celebrate the ICA's 75th anniversary. Ann Craven has been making paintings of birds since the late 1990s, inspired by colour-plates found in her Italian grandmother’s vintage ornithology books. Like the moon the birds serve as a touchstone for memory, each repetition of the image a revisiting of a moment, a recalling of loved ones. Paintings of other animals, flowers, portraits of family and friends soon followed, in the same diaristic deployment. For Craven, her bird paintings have totemic power: each is unique but each is also a stand-in for the people and scenarios she might have painted, were she a portrait painter. They embody memories, and offer a chance for the artist to covet her artistic history while encoding it with her current inner-life. More about Anne Craven: Ann Craven (b. 1967, Boston) makes self-reflexive paintings that comment on devotion, loss, and the immortalizing nature of her medium. Primarily using unabashedly high-key colors, she paints and repaints her key subjects—winsome animals and flowers modeled after those found in vintage books and postcards, among other sentimental twentieth-century sources, and the moon as observed by the artist herself. Craven’s emotional conceptualism inheres in these affectively charged repetitions, each of which is accompanied by an indexical canvas Palette used for the respective work’s color mixing and archived by the artist, like her Stripes, for her future reference.
