Meridians Booth M3
Jessica Silverman is pleased to present Judy Chicago's life-affirming masterpiece, Birth (1984), in the Meridians sector. At 20-feet-long by 8-feet-high, Birth is a monumentally scaled crochet textile that powerfully represents childbirth and creation of the world. Its lace-like form is made of an open-stitched black cotton yarn. In this rare monochromatic composition, the interplay of positive and negative space renders a cosmic abstraction of a birthing woman on her back. Creation undulates from her body; galactic tides flow from the tips of her fingers and hair, setting the universe aglow while from between her legs bursts a pomegranate-like womb. Comprised of nearly one million stitches that seem to pulsate like pixels across the rippling textile, the wall-hanging celebrates a laboring body and a formidable creatrix.
Judy Chicago (b. 1939, Chicago) has made an irrevocable impact on art history. She is best known for The Dinner Party, which is on permanent display at the Brooklyn Museum in New York. She has work in the collections of the British Museum and Tate, London; Moderna Museet, Stockholm; The Metropolitan Museum of Art, NY; National Gallery, Washington D.C.; LACMA, Los Angeles; MOCA Los Angeles; Hammer Museum, Los Angeles; Getty Trust and Getty Research Institute, Los Angeles; SFMOMA, San Francisco; Art Institute of Chicago, and over 25 university art museums. In 2023, Chicago will have a major retrospective at a New York museum. She has enjoyed recent museum surveys at the de Young Museum, San Francisco; the National Museum of Women in the Arts, Washington, D.C. and ICA Miami. Chicago's work has been exhibited in a broad range of major thematic group shows such as "Pacific Standard Time: Made in LA" at the Hammer Museum, Los Angeles; "Ends of the Earth" at Haus der Kunst, Berlin and "The World Goes Pop" at Tate Modern, London. Chicago lives and works in Belen, NM and is represented by Jessica Silverman, San Francisco and Jeffrey Deitch.
