DESCRIPTION:10am – 12pm  |  Book signing to follow Join us in this exciting conversation between writers and curators Eleanor Heartney\, Nancy Princenthal and Sue Scott\, who will be discussing their book\, Mothers of Invention: The Feminist Roots of Contemporary Art. Contributing to the dialogue is multimedia installation artist Ann Hamilton\, one of the book’s subjects. Mothers of Invention is the third in a series of books about women artists created by these four acclaimed writers during their twenty-year collaboration. This new volume articulates the links that bind feminist ideas to the evolution of contemporary art. Digging deep into four crucial practices\, the authors illuminate how the feminist revolution sparked an artistic revolution as well. They demonstrate how feminist ideas like mutualism\, impurity\, corporality and return to the handmade laid the groundwork for current conceptions of performance\, craft\, abstraction\, and ecofeminism.  This vital conversation delves into the perspectives of pioneering women artists who shook up a rigid art establishment and planted the seeds for today’s vibrant art world. The Critical Dialogue program at Anderson Ranch seeks to engage the community in a lively discussion about contemporary art and art making. Artists\, curators and other creatives lead these conversations\, inviting a broad audience to join in and take a closer look at art’s power to change the world. This program is free and open to the public.
