You have until April 3rd to go out of the city,..head for the Neuberger Museum of Art to check out the exhibit:
THE DECONSTRUCTIVE IMPULSE: WOMEN ARTISTS
RECONFIGURE THE SIGNS OF POWER, 1973-1991
JANUARY 15-APRIL 3, 2011
This survey of leading women artists examines the crucial feminist contribution to the development of deconstructivism in the 1970s and ’80s.
As the term suggests, deconstructivism involved taking apart and examining source material, generally borrowed from the mass media, to expose the ways commercial images reveal the mechanisms of power.
Women had a particularly high stake in this kind of examination and were disproportionately represented among artists who practiced it.
The exhibition includes 68 photographs, prints, paintings, videos, and installations by 22 artists and one artist’s collaborative.
