Feminist art at the Brooklyn Museum



Yesterday Kelerie and I went to the Brooklyn museum. I have been wanting to go there for awhile. They have a fantastic feminist art exhibition that I totally loved. The big one that I had really been wanting to see was called "the Dinner Party." It has names and place settings of women throughout history for those who have been forgotten as well as symbollic imagery on the place settings, and names of women all over the floor as well. There was also an exhibit from Ghada Amer, an artist from Egypt, whose art was provoking and fascinating.
