Re: [Gendergap] The Dinner Party

[Risker]

To be honest, I have my doubts as to the value of creating fancy charts
about the installation (and the women it names).  There's more value in
ensuring each has a quality article than there is in focusing on their
representation in this one art piece.

Gotta admit, thoughI remember seeing this in the early 1980s, and I
came away thinking that women artists were just as obsessed with female
genitalia as male artists.

Re: [Gendergap] The Dinner Party

[Pharos]

I've actually been in touch in the past with the Brooklyn Museum's tech
guru Shelley about just this article, and possible collaboration on the
1,038 related women's biographies :)

If you're not in touch with her already, of course I'd be glad to introduce
you.

Thanks,

[Gendergap] The Dinner Party

[Sarah Stierch]

Hi folks,

The article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Dinner_Party - which is about
the artwork by feminist artist and writer Judy Chicago, has some issues.
The issues lie in the "lists" that cover all the women featured in the
installation.

I'm in the process of a research project about the piece and the
controversy of the exhibition (...gotta get that master's) and I'm going to
start rewriting Chicago's biography while on winter break.

While I am very busy right now, I am seeking volunteers who might have
interest in evaluating how the list of women on *Dinner Party* article can
be better developed. Perhaps a separate page called "Women represented in
The Dinner Party" or a chart that is placed on the artworks own page. But,
as you can see, this list is rather poor and not the most pleasant on the
eyes:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Dinner_Party#Women_represented_in_the_place_settings
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Dinner_Party#Women_represented_on_the_ceramic_floor_tiles

I'd prefer people to take action, over just sharing ideas with me right now
(sorry to be bossy, but, I trust *you!)*. So BE BOLD and let's make that
list as wonderful and visually appealing as the artwork itself!

Anyone who can lend a hand will receive the Archives of American Art
Barnstar (since Judy Chicago is represented in the archives collection,
where I served as Wikipedian in Residence)!

Thank you gender-gap comrades,

Sarah
