Description
Guided by Associate Curator Chris Bayley we will discover a lesser-known aspect of Judy Chicago’s practice – works on paper. Judy Chicago: Revelations charts the full arc of Chicago’s career with a specific focus on drawing, highlighting rarely seen works. Several immersive, multi-media elements, including an AR app, a video recording booth and other audio-visual components, set this show apart from previous surveys of Chicago’s work. This exhibition at the Serpentine North Galleries is the artist’s largest solo presentation in a London institution to date.
Judy Chicago has a long historical relationship with NMWA; her work entered the collection over 20 years ago. In late 2019, in order to preserve and archive the artist’s legacy, the publicly-available Judy Chicago Research Portal: Learning, Making, Culture was created and Chicago’s visual archive is now housed at NMWA. That same year, Judy Chicago premiered a new series of work at NMWA in the exhibition “Judy Chicago – The End: A Meditation on Death and Extinction.”
Tickets are free for Patrons, £15 for Friends and £25 for guests.
