Notes:  The official publication celebrating Judy Chicago's feminist art masterpiece, the Dinner Party installation at the Brooklyn Museum [Elizabeth A. Sackler Center for Feminist Art], and an introduction to outstanding women in history. Judy Chicago's The Dinner Party is a defining work of feminist and contemporary art that brought women's history to light on the national stage when it was completed in 1979. When The Dinner Party multimedia exhibit opened it was almost as shocking to the art world and to society at large as the first exhibit of Impressionists nearly a century before. And like that art, it stretched the limits of artistic vision and expression, soon becoming a landmark in art history. Published to coincide with Chicago's 75th birthday and a nationwide series of events and exhibitions, the artist takes you on a personal tour of The Dinner Party, discussing its genesis, aesthetic and historical meaning, now and for the future. Features newly commissioned photography and two new essays by Chicago, along with essays by art historian Fraces Borzello and historian Jane Gerhard, and a foreword from museum director Arnold Lehman. Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references (p. 276-277) and index. Other authors:  Borzello, Frances. Gerhard, Jane F.
