Despite the reign of technology in art, simplistic approaches toward figuration have endured.  Idiosyncratic elements, such as a brushstroke, an imperfect or erroneous reproduction, or invented reality, elicit responses in the viewer that contribute to the artist's visual language.  "Seeing in Tongues" explores these languages expressed in the artist's magical, surreal or hysterical realities.

Women Imaging Women: A study of Female Portraiture


Opening: Thursday, July 9, 2009
5pm-8pm
Show Runs: July 9th-September 13, 2009
The State Street Gallery
401 S. State Street
Chicago, IL
Portraits play a profound role in the development of art history. From ancient lintels depicting Lady Xok at the Maya site of Yaxchilan to Cindy Sherman’s constructions of identity, portraits of women reflect culture, history, and character formation processes. Throughout the development of Western art history, images of women fashioned by men relate narratives of femininity.
Portraits by John Singleton Copley of Boston’s elite or José de Alcíbar’s paintings of nuns in commemoration of the affirmation of their vows in Colonial Mexico demonstrate how male artists created histories for specific women through the visual arts. At the dawn of the twentieth century, women artists became increasingly recognized and in particular, women who depicted fellow women received enhanced attention, notably the painter Mary Cassatt and the photographer Julia Margaret Cameron.
With art historical tradition in mind, “Women Imaging Women: A Study of Female Portraiture “examines how contemporary artists depict either themselves or other women.
This exhibition asks: how do women present images of other women? By presenting a diverse group of artists working in myriad media, Women Imaging Women offers a complex study of how women artists portray womanhood. The included works provide varied representations as some are abstract and mystical, while others are naturalistic and earnest.

Artists who have their work in this exhibition: ATYL, Sarah Baranski, Nicoletta Braccioni, Cat Del Buono, Pritika Chowdhry, Judy Cooperman, Mary Ellen Croteau, Peggy Gentleman, Andrea Ginsburg, Juarez Hawkins, Judithe Hernández, Allison Hill, Shelly Jyoti, Mary King, Lily Mayfield, Sheila Oettinger, Joyce Owens, Patricia Peña, Joyce Polance, Michelle-Renee Perkins, Gay Riseborough, Victoria Szilagyi, and Susan Tennenbaum.
