Artist Judy Chicago; Catherine Morris, Sackler Family Curator for the Elizabeth A. Sackler Center for Feminist Art; and art historian Frances Borzello talk about the early evolution of Chicago’s art. In conjunction with the exhibition Chicago in L.A.: Judy Chicago’s Early Work, 1963–74, the conversation traces the artist’s career from minimalism and Finish Fetish to the beginnings of The Dinner Party, which has been with us since 2007. A book signing follows.
