CHICAGO, Judy (American, b. 1939) Birth Hood. 2015. Offset glossy color lithograph on paper. Signed and titled lower edge. 19 ¼ x 19 ¼”. Frame: 24 ½ x 24 ½”. Multidisciplinary artist Judy Chicago helped pioneer the feminist art movement in the 1960s and ’70s; for decades, she has made work that celebrates the multiplicity of female identity. Birth Hood is a set of four spray-painted Chevrolet Corvair car hoods created in 1965/2011. This print is based on one of the original painted car hoods. Her most famous work, an installation called The Dinner Party (1974–79), is an homage to 39 influential female figures from Eastern and Western mythology and civilization. Her work is in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the Tate, the Art Institute of Chicago, and the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. Not examined out of frame. Overall good condition.
