Item Description: |
Published on the occasion of the exhibition (re)FOCUS Then and Now: Philadelphia Focuses on Women in the Visual Arts, The Galleries at Moore, January 27-March 16, 2024. ... This exhibition was curated by Judith K. Brodsky and Diane Burko. The exhibition catalog includes works from both the 1974 and 2024 exhibitions. (re)FOCUS celebrates the 50th anniversary of Philadelphia Focuses on Women in the Visual Arts/1974, a citywide festival recognizing women artists. With over 150 exhibitions, panels, lectures, workshops, and demonstrations it was one of the first large-scale surveys of the work of contemporary American women artists, signaling the inception of the American Feminist Art Movement. (re)FOCUS 2024 is also a Philadelphia citywide festival showing how women-identified and BIPOC artists have moved from the periphery to the center of the art world. Like its 1974 predecessor, (re)FOCUS is a collaboration among Philadelphia's large, small, and diverse visual arts institutions. |
