ABSTRACT : Joyce Kozloff (b. 1942, New Jersey) was a major figure in both the Feminist and Pattern and Decoration movements of the 1970s. She was a founding member of the Heresies collective, which published a quarterly journal about art, feminism, and politics. In 1979, she began to focus on public art and has since executed several major installations in public spaces. Her studio practice encompasses painting, sculpture, installations, printmaking, and photography. Since the early 1990s, Kozloff has used cartography as a device for contextualizing her longstanding interests in systems of power, knowledge production, and popular arts. |
