More about Judy Chicago
Born Judy Cohen in Chicago, Illinois, in 1939, Chicago attended the Art Institute of Chicago and the University of California, Los Angeles. Chicago’s early work was Minimalist, and she was part of the landmark Primary Structures exhibition in 1966 at The Jewish Museum in New York. She turned to feminist content in the late 1960s. At this time she changed her last name to Chicago, the location of her birth.
Believing in the need for a feminist pedagogy for female art students, Chicago began the first Feminist Art Program at California State University, Fresno, in 1970. The following year, with artist Miriam Schapiro, she co-founded the Feminist Art Program at California Institute of the Arts, Valencia. Womanhouse (1972), a collaborative installation the two artists created with their students, transformed an abandoned building into a house representative of women’s experiences.
Chicago is perhaps best known for her iconic The Dinner Party (1974–1979), which celebrates women’s history through place settings designed for 39 important women. The monumental, collaborative project incorporates traditional women’s crafts such as embroidery, needlepoint, and ceramics.
Chicago’s work has continued to address themes from women’s lives with The Birth Project (1980–1985) and The Holocaust Project (1985–1993). She is a prolific lecturer and writer, and she has taught at Duke and Indiana Universities and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Her numerous awards include grants from the National Endowment for the Arts and the Getty Foundation and four honorary doctorates. She currently resides with her husband, photographer Donald Woodman, with whom she collaborates on artistic and teaching opportunities.

Judy Chicago is the subject of a one person exhibition at the New Museum in New York, October 2023.
In the age of "Me-Too" and beyond, one of the first self-proclaimed feminist artists, the creator of the iconic "Dinner Party" - is now having her day. And IS she having her day - with a major ICA retrospective in Miami held during Art Basel/art , and glowing editorials and re-appreciations of her life and career including major museum exhibitions and retrospectives -with more to come. (She was even profiled by Martha Teichner on CBS News' Sunday Morning). The present work - "Through the Flower" is Judy Chicago's most iconic print - and in fact this image is the very same one chosen for the cover of her eponymous autobiography about being a woman in a male-dominated artworld. (Her autobiography is titled "Through the Flower: My Struggle as a Woman Artist". Judy Chicago he even set up a 501C3 Foundation called "Through the Flower" - as she says it's not just an image, but a philosophy.) This limited edition signed silkscreen on stonehenge white paper with deckled edges (pencil signed, titled and numbered from the limited edition of only 100) is based on the famous 1973 Judy Chicago painting now in the permanent collection of the Center for Feminist Art at the Brooklyn Museum. So for any collector who seeks the most emblematic Judy Chicago print -- this is it.
For reference only is an image of Chicago's autobiography "Through the Flower", with an introduction written by Anais Nin.
According to the "Art Story" - below is an analysis of the original 1970s "Through the Flower" painting upon which this print is based:
"Created by the artist after Chicago's decade-long "struggl[e]... in a male-dominated art community," Through the Flower marks the artist's newfound embrace of less abstract and more accessible imagery: the female sexual organ, depicted here as a round element or opening. The painting's "trippy" opticality relates at least in part to the artist's experience with mood-altering drugs. The subject matter is radical: genitals were always demurely concealed or merely suggested in the tradition of the female nude, yet here the vaginal opening constitutes the focus of the work. Through the Flower is one of the landmark pieces of Chicago's early feminist phase. It serves as the title and cover of the artist's 1975 autobiography as well as the name of the non-profit feminist art organization she founded in 1978..."
